Backups

The Backups branch lists the backup files in the project's VGP_BACKUP folder, grouped by year and then month, one node per backup. Backups are written by File → Backup DB and VGP and by the automatic backup on save; see Project Properties for the backup settings.

Select a backup to see its date and file in the Properties panel. A backup is a zip of the project file and the database, so it cannot be opened as a project. To go back to one, close the project and use File → Recover a project; see Managing backups.

Context menus​

The branch header shows the standard group menu, and each backup shows the standard item menu; Delete on a backup deletes the file. Both menus are listed on the Standard Item and Group Menus page.
