PM Profile Back Up Tool not working
PM Profile Back Up Tool not working
It is the Restore button not working. Clicking it does nothing. I have used the program previously many times but this time, I cannot get my previously backed up PM profile restored

Please make sure you first select the backup to restore in the list (click it), then click restore.
I'll make sure to add a warning box to that effect in the next version if you omit selecting a backup first

Re: PM Profile Back Up Tool not working
Which list? Beside the two buttons - Back Up and Restore - there is a large box that would contain a list if I was backing up but I am trying to Restore a back up from my old computer to my new computer. Before closing down my old computer, I copied the Back Up to the Documents folder on my new computer. Now I have installed the PM Back Up program on my new computer, the Restore button does nothing. I had expected it to ask me where I wanted to Restore the profile from, but clicking the Restore button does absolutely nothing

Re: PM Profile Back Up Tool not working
You have to point the tool to where the backups are stored before trying to restore something. The tool needs to know where the backups are before it can restore them.
Click the button "set backup path" to configure where the backups are stored (By default this is "My Documents\PM Backup" or "Documents\PM Backup", but it can be any folder of your choice). After you have pointed it to the correct folder, the existing/copied backups will show up in the list. Then select the one to restore, and click "restore".
