Restoring from a crashed PC

[PCBob]

I recently had to reformat my PC and although I had a backup of the My Documents folder I had not worked with Cumulus long enough to realize the historical data is not stored in My Documents. So you guessed it I lost all my history.

I can grab text files from Weather Underground and I'm proficient with the tools to create new log files in any format. My question is what specific files do I need to rebuild, where do I place them and is the format documented somewhere.

Thanks Steve for a GREAT application, I'm having a lot of fun with it.

The files you need to recreate are (a) the monthly log files, (b) dayfile.txt, and (c) alltime.ini. Everything else is just transient. They all go in the data folder in the Cumulus installation folder. The formats of all of the files are in the wiki; start here: http://wiki.sandaysoft.com/a/Category:Log_Files
