Backup problems - invalid data

[Jon Meeker]

Whenever I try to open up data from my Logbook Pro backup folder, I get a "Invalid Data, please try again" error message. My computor then locks up and I have to shut it down with the on/off switch. Any ideas?

Hello Jon,

I'm not sure what you mean by "open up" as backup files that end in .BAK must be restored. Click File..Archive..Restore to restore a prior backup created by clicking File..Archive..Backup.

I created a folder on my desktop called "logbook data" to save backups in. I then save this folder to a disc. When I open this folder and double click the backup I want, it opens up logbook pro and then I get the message "Invalid Data, Please try again" and then my computor locks up. I guess the proper way to restore this data is to open up logbook pro first and then click File...Archive...Backup. Will it restore this way from a disc or a flash drive?
Thank you for your help.

Jon,

Once you create a .BAK file, you must use the File..Archive..Restore option to restore it. You cannot double-click a .BAK file.
