Data Backup and Recovery

The back up and restore menu will enable you to perform a routine back-up of all your data files.

It is vitally important that you make use of this function as your data could be completely lost in the case of file corruption, fire or theft.

When backing up your files it is wise to save them on an external drive as well as on your current PC.

Should you choose to restore a saved version, all existing data in the program will be overwritten so make sure that you back up often.
