Overview
It is possible to regularly make a backup of the different elements of a project.
During this backup, you can create:
  • an archive file (ZIP extension). This file contains all the project elements that were saved.
  • a simple copy of the project.
The saved project can be restored at any time.
How to?

To make a backup of the current project:

  1. On the "Project" tab, in the "Other actions" group, expand "More actions" and select "Make a project backup". The archiving wizard starts.
  2. Select the categories of the project files to save.
  3. Select the type of backup to perform:
    • Compressed backup file (zip). In this case, specify the name of the backup directory and file. This name can be a custom name or it can contain the backup date. Caution: If the backup is performed in the directory of versions and if a version with the same name was already saved, the corresponding archive will be overwritten.
    • Backup copy. In this case, specify the name of the backup directory. This name may be a custom name or it may contain the backup date.
  4. Finish the wizard. The archive file (or the copy of the project) is created in the specified directory.
Notes
