4. Hot button file sets. These files have a file extension of ".btn".

5. Exported station information files. These files have a file extension of ".stns".

Refer to the List of Files topic for details on specific file names in this group of file types.

When backing up non-database systems files, only those files located in the

XStudio application folder are backed up. For instance, if you have placed hot

button files in another location, they will not be backed up.

Restoring Backed-Up Files

Restoring backed-up XStudio system database and/or settings files is a manual

process. XStudio must not be running at the time you restore any of the

backed-up files or your restoration of files will fail. In most cases, when

restoring backed-up files you will be overwriting an existing XStudio file of the

same name.

To restore some or all of the backed-up files, locate the folder in which the backup data is stored. If

your backup was configured for daily backups, you may have as many as seven (7) sets of backup

files, one for each day of the week. The daily backup sets are located in individual folders under the

base backup folder. If you have multiple backups, you will need to decide which group of files to use,

typically the most recent.

Backup files may have been zipped to a single file as part of the backup task (if so configured). You

need to have a utility to unzip the backup. Recent Windows operating systems typically have support

for zip files built-in, but you may wish to use another utility if you have a preference. If the backup you

wish to use is zipped, you should unzip the files to a temporary location as an initial step.

Backup files are grouped together without regard to the folder location they originated from and fall into

two (2) categories; a) database files, and b) preference and settings files. Database files will always be

present in a backup while the preference and settings files are optionally included when you create the

System Backup task. The two groups of files are handled differently in the restore process, as outlined

in the following sections.

Restoring System Database Files

System database files all have a file extension of ".nx1". As a general rule, database files should be

restored as a complete set of files as most files are tables that are related to one another (a relational

database). Further, XStudio will fail to operate correctly if a partial set of database files is present at

launch of the program. See the Database Reference topic for a list of the files that make up the system

database.

Restoring the database files is a matter of copying all of them to the XStudio system database folder.

Typically, this is a folder named "Data" located under the XStudio application folder. During the copy

process, it is likely you will be overwriting files that already exist in the folder, replacing the contents

with the backed-up content.

There are two (2) database files that can be restored individually if needed.

They are "Music.nx1" (the imported music database) and "LogData.nx1" (an

archive of log snapshots and log changes). These tables are not related to any

other tables in the system database and can thus be safely restored individually

if needed.
