Restore Your Company from a Backup

To restore a backed up copy of your company:

1. In the Home window, on the File menu, choose Restore.
2. In the Restore From Backup window, if you are restoring from a disc, insert the disc into your computer drive, and click Next.
3. In the Select Backup File window, select a file using one of the following methods:
   • In Select a Backup File, select a backup file from the list, or click Browse to locate the copy you want to restore.
   • In the Schedule Backup Files Found area, select a backup file from the list. You will only see files in this area if you have scheduled Sage Simply Accounting to backup automatically.
4. Click Next.
5. In the New File Name window, to avoid overwriting the current working copy of your company, give the restored company a different name than that of the working copy.

Caution: If you want to use the same name, make sure you save the restored copy in another folder or it will replace the working copy of your company.

6. Complete the remaining steps in the wizard.
7. (Optional) Check the data integrity after restoring your company file.
