Default Re: restoring backup after reformatting c:

Have you tried double clicking on the backup file instead of trying to open
it using Money?

Default restoring backup after reformatting c:

I wiped out my c: drive and reformatted it. I have
reinstalled Money but it will not let me use the backup
disks I created. It gives me an error message "My Money
Backup d1.mbf is corrupded or not a Money backup file."

I don't think it's corrupted - but it may be becasue I
previously used the 99 version of Money and later upgraded
to this version. When it looks for backup files, the file
extensios it looks for do not seem to match ".mbf" Can
anyone help???

Thank you!
