Restoring database from backup


To protect you from data loss due to file corruption following a computer crash, power failure or other source, a database backup is automatically stored in the Program Folder in your StepWatch Library every time you quit the StepWatch program.

IF YOU SUSPECT THAT YOUR DATABASE IS CORRUPTED, DO NOT QUIT THE STEPWATCH PROGRAM.

Use the "Restore Database from Back Up…" option from the Utilities portion of the Database menu to revert to the database as it was the last time you quit the StepWatch program.

If you quit the StepWatch program with a corrupted database, the corrupted database will be saved to back up and you will not be able to restore the database using this command. Contact Cyma Technical Support for help. We are developing the means to rebuild your database from log records that exist in your Program Files provided you have not altered or deleted this folder or directory.
