Recover project or timeline from .db backup

PostThu Oct 18, 2018 3:43 pm

Hi, im on a really big problem.
I lost my project files when i format to install a clean win 10 installation, i have many problems with win 10 so i have to format several times and with any recovery program i can get any file, so its definilly lost.

i only got my Resolve Cache folder with the backup files.

the name and extensions are like
Project.db.20181017195605

any chance of recovery at least the timelines?

Hello, Daniel,
in the project manager, right click on the empty area and in a context menu chose to list Other Projects Backups… Assuming you are on the same systems before and there were no major settings changes to your environment, if there are valid backups available you should be able to restore them into a current database.
