Louie_Carter 0 Posted September 14, 2016 My wife's laptop crashed, but we were able to save the all of the data, documents,photos, etc. However, Chief that she used (X2) was lost, but we have the Chief X2 Data files. I have installed my old copy of X4 onto her new machine. Is there any way to recover her Chief Bonus Files, Manufacturer Files, and User Files that she was using from those data files and migrate them into her X4 on the new computer? Thanks.

Joe_Carrick 2388 Posted September 14, 2016 Louie, Can't you import those? I think it should work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Louie_Carter 0 Posted September 14, 2016 Long time since I've worked with the program. I'll try an import. Wasn't sure what route I could take on this. Thanks for the suggestion. Anyone else have other ideas, I'd love to hear them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
