A simple uninstall/reinstall should not cause you to lose the database and neither should any of the other things you mentioned above.

If the database is damaged or missing hands you will have to restore the most recent backup you have, if you have one, then reimport the hands played from the C:\HM3Archive folder since the date of your backup unfortunately.

This is why regular backups are a good idea. If your database becomes corrupt, or you have hardware problems, you can restore a backup and only have to import the most recent hands (that were played after the backup was created) and edit any tournament results played after the backup was created if necessary. I recommend keeping at least the most recent 2 or 3 backups in case the most recent one does not restore properly you can try the previous backup. You can make a backup of the active database at any time by using the Tools - 'Backup Database...' menu.
