Eagle Day to Bombing of the Reich is a improved and enhanced edition of Talonsoft's older Battle of Britain and Bombing the Reich. This updated version represents the best simulation of the air war over Britain and the strategic bombing campaign over Europe that has ever been made.

Updated to V 1.06.101 and forgot to backup btuser.dat. Now, my PBEM save is saying "the users on this system are not authorized to load this saved game". Is there a fix for this or will I need to restart the entire thing from scratch?

I tried recreating one with a hex editor, but there is a special security character that is unique to each file.

Do a search for btruser.dat on your root (C:) drive, Windows may have stored a copy. Otherwise you are out of luck.
