I had asked about this in the Ask A Simple Question thread but didn't really get any answers and this issue is becoming a pretty large headache for me so I figured I'd make a thread about it.

Basically, every once in a while when I load up my world, all of my Thaumcraft 4 research and research points will have reset. It's very inconsistent for when it occurs because it doesn't really seem to matter whether I exit out of the game properly or I crash, it happens either way (but doesn't happen every time).

I've tried to just constantly backup my world, but I don't have any idea when it's going to reset my research so it could be that time I exit out of the game to do a backup where it resets (which has actually just recently happened). I've had to revert to a backup from a week ago multiple times because of this and it's getting a bit frustrating.

My question is does anyone know how to prevent this or if there's a fix for it? Is there a file in which all of this information is located that I can copy and paste into a more recent backup so I can have all of my research back and not lose my progress?

Oh.. and before this suggestion pops up, I'm not using the cheat sheet. :P I don't have all of the research completed and having it all unlocked in an instant will take a lot of the fun out of the mod.

I'm running the DW20 1.6.4 FTB pack v. 1.0.18 in case that information is useful.
 
Update thaumcraft
The bug is fixed in the newest version

Did that but there's still one problem.. Is there any way to transfer all of my thaumcraft data (my research, points, etc.) from a previous backup to my current world? There's a few things that I've built since that backup that I'm not really a fan of having to build again. :P

Copy player.dat from old world to new one
 
The player.dat as in the "username.dat" located in the players folder in a specific world's saves folder?
