How do I import backed up storage folder/client data?
-
After having persistent problems with the UI, I backed up all critical files and uninstalled Sia. After reinstalling the UI and copying over backed up files, everything seems to be working except for the old storage folder. Are there any procedures I need to carry out in order to import a previous storage folder?
-
Are you using the same wallet and same location of files & everything?
-
@maol yes I'm using the same wallet and all Sia files are located in the same place as the previous install.
-
Just to be on the safe side - you can & did unlock the wallet, right?
I would expect it should work that way, sorry to hear you're out of luck for now! I haven't tried this myself, tbh, so not sure if there's something that you missed that is different, or if there are some additional steps you may have to take to get it working again.
