Re-create Site Manager from crashed PC Windows.old

Post by maidbloke »

Hi

I had a PC crash thanks to a Windows 10 Update which went wrong. I had to "reset" my laptop which meant re-installing CoreFTP.

I have a backup of my Site Manager but it's over 2 years old so I am missing lots of usernames/passwords. :shock: my bad...

Instead, I am hoping to copy over the Site Manager information from the original copy of Core FTP.

I have access to the original files at C:\Windows.old\Users\Paul\AppData\Roaming\CoreFTP - I copied these over to the new install at C:\Users\Paul\AppData\Roaming\CoreFTP but this did not show my Site Manager info.

Any ideas on how I can copy the Site Manager information over from Windows.old directory?

Thank you! :P

its stored in the registry by default, so unless you were using file based storage or made a backup when prompted, there won't be any way to recover it.

If you did make a backup (when prompted) then that file can be used from within the Site Manager, right click on the list of sites - Import.
