Don't know how to recover data from backup

[ch4r1i3b]

Hi, first of all, I think superProductivity is awesome! Now, let's go to the question:

My superProductivity 7.0.0 crashed, so I had to reinstall it. I reinstalled the stable version (6.5.2).
When I ran superProductivity again, I saw that all my worklog dissappeared. I reinstalled 7.0.0 again, but the worklog is still empty.

I confirmed that I have all the data daily backed-up in json files (projects, subprojects, tasks, date, times, etc.), nevertheless I don't know how to restore it.

In Settings, I configured 'Automatic Backups'. There, the help message states: "Auto save all data to your app folder in order to have it ready in case something goes wrong." It would be great to know what to do in case something goes wrong.

Thanks!

Hi there! Thank you very much for your question! You should be able to restore your backups from Settings -> Import/Export -> Import from File. Then you just select the backup you want to restore.

Thank you for this app, it really seems to have everything I need in a to-do list/time management software.
Q: where does .JSON files from Automatic Backup go? Because they aren't the same as sync files, right? Syncing and backup are distinct features?

If you expand "Automatic Backups" there is a link to your file system. Syncing and backups are distinct features. The data format of the two should be almost identical.

Great! I did it and it worked!In one of the versions (I don't remember which one) I tried this function but it only accepted .csv files, so I discarded it.But now I tried again and I recovered everything!Thanks a lot!!!
