Hi All
My PC powered off last night after I shut down Log4OM, I turned the power off by accident,
Today when I go to start Log4OM I get the configuration screen as a new user, my setup is not in the drop down list,
If I enter my call and locator as a minimum and click save none of my qso's are in the log,
How can I restore the log ???
Thanks
Trevor

Happy New Year!
You should have a backup log located where you told Log4OM to store it. It will be a ADIF file. Find it and then import it.

The config backup is stored with the ADIF backup and will have the same date, see screen shot
The normal location for backups is C:\Users\YOUR USER NAME\AppData\Roaming\LogOM\Backup
Rename the file config.xml and copy it to your config folder letting it overwrite the new config that has been placed there

HELP MENU -> OPEN CONFIG FOLDER...
just in case you have a portable version or hardly redirected your config folder tampering the application.config file
