Mrs. Muddled Posted June 8, 2007 Posted June 8, 2007 I purchased Roboform several years ago and I really like it. I have messed up my back up folders and I have no clue how to start all over again. When I backed up my data (Outlook Express address book etc.) I discovered I backed up an "old" list and I don't know how to get back to square one. I made more than one folder for back up ... then I got confused (how unlike me ) ... I was not able to restore what I'd done and the data I've got saved is out of date. I have sent Roboform help a request. Obviously they didn't read my request and just sent me a link on how to move Roboform to another computer. I've tried reading their help files and I'm still not sure how best to handle this. I don't want to lose all my passwords by making a dumb move. My thought was uninstalling the program and then downloading it again. I wasn't sure what would happen to all my data if I did that. I'd sure like to talk to someone who uses the program and can tell me how to get back to a clean start. Quote
JTD Posted June 9, 2007 Posted June 9, 2007 If you have somehow lost all your backup folders and lost your password cards you will have to start from scratch I am afraid.I have used roboform for 3 or 4 years now. And lost is lost with it. Have you maybe tried a system restore to and earlier date??? Quote
Mrs. Muddled Posted June 9, 2007 Author Posted June 9, 2007 (edited) If you have somehow lost all your backup folders and lost your password cards you will have to start from scratch I am afraid.I have used roboform for 3 or 4 years now. And lost is lost with it. Have you maybe tried a system restore to and earlier date??? I still have all my passwords and data. What I didn't have was "recent" email addresses from Outlook Express in my data files. I probably screwed it up because I may have backed up a wrong file ... I have NO idea what the heck I did. So, when I looked in my data ... none of my more recent addresses appeared. I have just been playing with some of the buttons and I have actually been able to import my newest email addresses. I do believe I've solved my problem! Thanks for your response. I always manage to solve my problems if I beat myself over the head with them long enough. Edited June 9, 2007 by Mrs. Muddled Quote
