Please, Please, Please, add a feature to allow saving of old data when reinstalling cumulus 2. I have lost a months data because I have reinstalled and didn't know I would lose it.

Cumulus doesn't overwrite your data when you reinstall/upgrade. On the other hand, it's always safer to take a backup before reinstalling. Are you sure your data has gone? Perhaps you have installed to somewhere different? I can't think of any way that the installer could delete your old data.

Well! I don't know if it completely deleted it. However, It didn't show the old data. Yesterdays data fields were empty.

Anyway, It is no longer important as I have decided to forgo my first month of data, and deleted the folder and started again anyway.

Thanks

Larry
