After updating to latest version all my custom awards are gone. How can I save and restore these during updates?

We're they saved with a unique name or were they variations of the standard award set?
For safety use File/export award and save the XML file

Hi Terry,
Yes I have exported my custom awards as xml files with a unique name. I can import them back in okay. Was hoping for a way to quickly import them all, however I dont have too many so will just import them back in one at a time. Something to keep in mind before updates, save all custom awards first by exporting to xml files.

They should be reloaded/restored after an update, I will speak to Lele about this
Just make sure that you back them up

I was wondering if they get restored from a certain path? I have been saving them in a folder that is replicated up to Google Drive, so have a backup.

So C:\users\username\AppData\Roaming\Log4OM2\awards
I can see my custom awards in this folder as well. They seem to have been created after the upgrade though.
See what happens next upgrade.

Yes, no automatic re-import made yet.
