PS4 Database Rebuild deletes DLC licenses from HDD / Content from External HDD

I have been having a problem with my PS4 deleting my DLC off my external drive after rebuilding the database when the PS4 restarts due to a kernel panic or crash. I am not quite sure if it deletes the content or just the license files off the external drive because it has a separate restoration when the console boots back up so I am thinking it deletes the license files from the HDD when it rebuilds the database. Any suggestions on how to keep DLC after a kernel crash or how to stop the system from restoring itself? I was thinking that if I backup my database using DB backup than I could just restore my database after but I’m pretty sure it doesn’t get stored in the database. I am currently on a PS4 pro 5.05 (2nd gen) and store pretty much all my games on a 4TB external HDD.

they were not deleted, there are tutorials that use a folder called release 1.01, since the PC is launched, and retrieves the links of almost all games, although some can not be deleted and very occasionally play

This happened to me and I also thought they were deleted, but they are still there, I will teach you a very simple way to have them again. When the crash happens and the dlc on the external hard drive is gone, just after starting the ps4, activate the hen, go to settings, devices, usb storage devices, select your external hard drive, and click "stop using this extended storage ", after that, select your external hard drive again, and click on the option" use this extended storage ", after doing this, you will see that your external hard drive will read the content that is in it, and your dlc and content that you thought you had been deleted, they will be there again. It is very simple and easy. I discovered it myself, there is nothing explaining about it on the net. I hope you understand, I'm BR, I don't know how to write very well in English, so I used the google translator.
