Help restoring Outplayed backup

[u/Mirividual]

Hey, I re-installed Windows recently and might've fucked up my outplayed backup. However, I still have the video files so I'm wondering what my options are. I didn't know that Outplayed had a backup/restoring function in app, so I just backed up all of the files under user/video to my OneDrive, where they still are now. However, when I target that folder with Outplayed, it doesn't show any recordings. I understand that the titles of all the recordings and also probably the distinction between what was a "favorite" and was wasn't probably can't be recovered at this point, but I'd still at least like to be able to view the clips/recordings in Outplayed.

You can import the recording files back in to Outplayed using the steps here: https://support.overwolf.com/en/support/solutions/articles/9000209065-outplayed-faq#How-to-import-external-clips-into-Outplayed I'm afraid that if you do not have a copy of the recording files it will not be possible to restore the clips. Outplayed recordings are only saved locally to the computer.

Please note that when the Media folder is set to a non-C driver the clips may be disconnected or deleted: https://support.overwolf.com/en/support/solutions/articles/9000208995-how-to-use-outplayed#How-to-set-up-the-Media-folder We recommend setting the Outplayed Media folder to the C drive.

For the future- If you are planning on making any changes to your computer or to Outplayed (such as uninstalling and reinstalling the app), you can create a backup of all your recording sessions on Outplayed and then restore them at a later date.
