Restoring a backup

  1. Open the backups (the hub’s Backups card or Sync › Local database backups…).
  2. On the backup’s row, click Restore.
  3. Read the Restore this backup? window and click Restore and restart.

What happens:

  • before restoring, the app tries to send any pending changes to the cloud;
  • the current database is kept in the app folder as a safety copy;
  • the database goes back to how it was when the backup was made and the app restarts — anything done afterwards leaves this computer;
  • anything deleted after the backup comes back, and may come back in the cloud too on the next upload.

After the restart, the panel shows the notice This database was restored from a backup. Click Got it once you have checked.
