Mike That's it. I've moved the Dennis Bill Tree current folder to my Temp store folder and renamed it just to prevent confusion ( :roll: ). I'll sort out any required files tomorrow and then delete the rest. Meanwhile I've now renamed the FH project to Dennis Bills Tree current and all is hunky dory...

Mike I've renamed the remaining project by just removing the (2) . I would prefer to remove the Oct 22 as well but I can't do that whilst the stray Dennis Bills Tree current exists. As I said I'm quite happy to delete it as it isn't now current. So is it best to do as you suggest to make it a recogn...

Mike First the good news - all the data for the Dennis Bills Tree current Oct 22 (2) project is intact. This is how the Project Window now looks: DennisBill_FHProjectWindow_4.jpg The other FH projects are either ones I have done for others or research data (Bills of NI and Touheys of Feakle) that I ...

Mike
Bingo!
It has restored with all the latest data, sources and media. Dennis

Mike
Here is the result Dennis

Mike I tried a couple of recent backups but the results were the same as you can see below. I then restored an older backup from before I renamed the folder from Dennis Bills Tree 2021 to ...current Oct 22 in September 22 and that seems to have ceated a project as you would expect. This presumably p...

Mike
I have done that exactly as you said (honest) andas you will see the '(2)' project appears as a '01/01/1971' and as Dennis Bills Tree current Oct 22 (Folder: Dennis Bils Tree current 1022 (2))'
I presume that this is not as expected.

Mike Here are the two screenshots. DennisBill_FHProjectWindow_270123.jpg DennisBill FH Folders.jpg Sorry I hadn't clicked Place Inline. You will notice that my backups have a OneDrive folder outside Dennis Bills Tree as does a folder containing all the items realting to my Family History Book. The b...

Many thanks both. Mike I have just tested the restore from backup naming and as you said it suggests Dennis Bills Tree current 1022 (2) I'm sure that I didn't rename it at the time I did it for real. To answer your last question - as far as I can see all the data is present up to 26/1/23, including ...

I always do a Full Backup when closing after each session, with the odd ‘skip’ if very little data has been changed. Yesterday as the Full Backup was finishing the phone rang and I was distracted but caught sight of a pop-up message about ‘validation’. When I opened FH today my project opened – the ...

Thanks Mike
I believe this is called a 'work round', but it would be better to have an option.
Anyway, one less irritant.
Keep smiling

I've been using FH for nearly 20 years at a fairly basic level but have always kept it up-to-date. Since installing V7 and updates I have become increasingly irrtitated - a state that seems to become more prevalent as one enters the 4th quarter of one's eighth decade :) When I add a source citation ...
