Putting backup .db files back into resolve - help?

PostSat Jan 16, 2021 7:08 pm

Complete newbie here - I was a fool and didn't use the actual backup option in Resolve before I clean deleted it, and instead I just went into the files and copy pasted the file named "Resolve Disk Database" before I deleted Resolve. Now that I reinstalled Resolve again, how can I reintegrate the .db projects in the "Resolve Disk Database" file?

It's particularly this Project.db file:

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/ ... sp=sharing
CPU: Ryzen 7 3700x
GPU: RX 5700xt
16GB 3600mhz DDR4 RAM
Windows 10

Deleted what? The Resolve Disk Database? Resolve program folders? Everything on the disk? Or does "delete" mean "uninstall"?

There is no file called "Resolve Disk Database"; you must mean folder(?) Do you have that folder? If so, when you drill down and open sub-folders, do you see your projects? Where did the "project.db" file come from?

If need be, you can put that project file in a folder and paste it into the new (presumably empty) database, in the projects folder.
