Restore

To restore the data of one component from a backup is simple. In order to restore a backup file, you must first stop the component, then copy the backup file in the dbs\backup folder and paste it in the dbs folder in the component installation directory, then you can restart the Mugnsoft component.

Note:

You can only restore a backup file from the same component.

When restoring a backup file it is recommended to restore the backup file of the other components as well. No doing so could lead to inconsistent data.
