Restore Recordbox database without having the old computer
Hi!
I have unfortunately changed computers without making a library backup. I fortunately do have a windows backup of the original Appdata folder.
However when I replace my recordbox folder of the new install with the one from my backup, it says it can't find the master database. I can see my playlists etc for a short moment before the program resets everything to default with no cue points, playlists, etc.
What can I do to have my new Recordbox install recognize my old Appdata folder?
Thanks!!
Marc

Marc,
That's entirely because the preferences file is pointing to the wrong spot.
Open the rekordbox3.settings file and edit the path so the username matches from the current user's path to those which are in the file.
