DOS76 Posted September 14, 2015 Author Share Posted September 14, 2015 I am getting a corrupt XML error message so I see my back up in the backup folder so how do I utilize the file to recover my XML Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Carr Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 Hi @DOS76, just try replacing your LaunchBox.xml file with one from the Backups folder. Try the one with the most recent date first. If that doesn't work, go on down the list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOS76 Posted September 14, 2015 Author Share Posted September 14, 2015 Works great. I'm very very very glad that you have this feature included. I've never had to use it before but if suddenly all my hard work into LaunchBox was gone I'd probably be very upset. Has this always been a feature or did you add it after experiencing catastrophic failure? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SentaiBrad Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 This has been a feature as far back for me as version 2.1, however I assume he's had it there since inception. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Carr Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 It's been there since pretty early on. What I really need to do though is figure out how to prevent the corruption in the first place during freezes and crashes. I do have an idea; probably worth tackling.

Joe35car Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 Old thread but this looks like the place. My backups folder is getting pretty big. Can I delete some of them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are not needed for LB to function, just your back ups in case of an issue and you need to restore. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
