I just copied the standard birth fact to a custom set of facts. I wanted to experiment with different sentences. It did not copy but did a move from the standard set to the custom set which was not what I intended. I tried to copy it back to standard but was told I cannot do that.

I also inadvertently made it copy to all projects.

Is there any way to recover from this other than a new install?

All my projects in FH7 are expendable but I would like to keep other facts as I have modified sentence structures to my liking.

The Birth definition is still present in Standard but simply <eclipsed> by the custom copy.
FH will NOT let you destroy Standard fact definitions.

As an experiment to enhance your understanding, first tick Show Hidden and both Birth definitions appear
You will need to widen the window to see all the details.
Now click Fact Sets... and Move Up the Standard fact set above the custom fact set.

The Standard Birth fact is now Visible and the custom version <eclipsed>.

You can safely Delete the custom Birth definition or continue your sentence experiments.

By using that Fact Set reordering you can choose which Birth definition is in use.

Thank you Mike.

Such a simple fix - to my knowledge of FH.

That worked just as you described and now I can see all the duplicate facts that I have created in multiple fact sets. Time to clean up my act before making the move permanent
