recovering files

Post by Ron Melby » 22 Jul 2023 12:22

This is the closest topic area in my mind, if it doesn't fit, sorry. Once again disk failure.

from ProgramData folder, what is the delineation down to the fh files: Plugins, Plugin Data, Facts, Queries and so on?

I am looking for the folder drill down to all the customizations and additions I have made.

Thanks.

See Family Historian Program Data Folder that gives: C:\ProgramData\Calico Pie\Family Historian\
All the global customisations held in files are within that Family Historian folder but there are other customisations held in the Windows Registry and some in the Project folder.
Did you use one of the Backup and Restore Family Historian Settings plugins to save your global customisations?
