Can't get cards back after computer crash

[sjp...@gmail.com]

I've been running an old version of Mnemosyne (1.22 I think) without any problem until a recent crash since which I could only get error messages. I have re-installed Mnemosyne but can't work out how to get the old cards back again. On File > Open I'm asked for the .mem file but I can't find any files of this type. In the Backup folder the files are all .db. Can I get the old cards back? I notice that Mnemosyne has moved on to a much later version - can I use the old cards with this version? (I'm on Windows 10.)

That is a truly ancient version :-)

Installing a new version should automatically import your cards if they're in a standard location. If not, file - import - 1.x format will do the trick.

Cheers,

Peter

Thanks Peter. Working on 2.6.1 now. The file locations seem to be different now but all seems to be okay.
Regards
John
