How to Make a Backup of a Catalog¶

Regular backups are an extra measure that you should take to avoid losing too much work if something goes wrong when working or with your computer.

You can Backup your video catalog (only the one you are working on). Click Catalog and choose Backup to bring up a dialog about the procedure. Backup starts once you click Yes. Backup is simple and goes fast.

Your backup file gets saved in the same folder as your catalog file with the file extension .bak. We recommend moving it to another device once you have completed the backup process.

Note: The backup procedure will overwrite an existing previous backup. The 'No' option allows you to back out of backing-up if you decide to retain the earlier backup, either to be renamed and conserved or restore it in case of a suspected mess-up in your current cataloging work.
