SCM backs up your database in 2 locations.
Auto backup
After each update your database is automatically backed up.
To find this auto backup,
To restore this back up zip
Rolling database backup
A rolling backup is taken everytime you restart the SCM program.
To find it
Your backups are saved as *-backup.db
SCM will keep up to 12 backups.
To restore it
- Shutdown SCM App
- Rename scm-next.db to scm-next.bak
- Rename *-backup.db to scm-next.db
You are just renaming a backup db to replace the main db file.
Recover a db
If your database ever fails to load, its possible to recover tasks from a corrupted database file. (You can even restore deleted tasks this way)
By choosing restore, you will need to select any scm-next.db
SCM will then recover all tasks in that file and restart the App.
