Judy C 0 Report post Posted June 6, 2008 Hello, I purchased the upgrade and installed it on the same computer that v6.12 is on. Once v7 installed, I restored my project from a backup on an external hard disk, which included my customizations. The install went fine; the restore went fine; however, when I opened my project in v7, none of my custom layouts were there. I can recreate them, and I've already created my favorite layout; however, I'm wondering what else might be missing and what I should check. (My accent colors are fine, for example.) Thanks, Judy Campbell Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Virginia Blakelock 0 Report post Posted June 7, 2008 You can copy your layout (*.lo) files from your main v6.12 folder to the appropriate v7 location in User Program Data Files, located by default in Windows XP and Windows 2000: C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\The Master Genealogist v7 Windows Vista: C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\The Master Genealogist v7 If you are not familiar with the data file storage system in v7, see Help > Data File Storage, or download my explanation with screenshots from vblakelock.com/tmg7.pdf.
