ForScore can make a simple snapshot of its current data.

This is useful before you do something (commit a match, drop a stage from a match, etc.) in that it gives you the opportunity to restore from the snapshot if you wish.

It does not take the place of the regular data backups that you make for your computer.

 

The Data Backup Wizard is opened from the File menu.  (This is a good item to add to the custom toolbar.)

 

Note that Data Restore is shown on this menu also.  It will only be there if you have already backed up your data at least once.

 

Data File Archive is described in the next section of this manual.

 

If you'll be overwriting a previous backup snapshot,

the wizard will alert you:

A copy of your data files has been saved in a folder called BACKUP inside ForScore's working folder (usually that will be C:\ForScoreFiles\BACKUP

 

 

The Data Restore Wizard works similarly:
