Database Backup

Since EATB 6.1, automated database backups are created in User-Home/.EATB/{Version}/backup. Updates are by default created daily for up to 20 days.

  1. Terminate the running EATB session completely. On the toolbar, click .

  2. To have an additional backup of the current status, create a copy of the .EATB folder in your user directory, by defaultC:\Users\UserID\.EATB\ and save it in a location of your choice.
  3. In the backup folder in your user directory, by default C:\Users\UserID\.EATB\{Version}\backup, unzip the database backup and copy the unzipped file.

  4. Replace the database file stored in the db folder, by default C:\Users\UserID\.EATB\{Version}\db.
  5. Restart EATB.
