Valerie, I replied to this ages ago but it does not seem to have got through!
My reply still stands; ie. go to the file and double click it. If the file is not there then use Windows Search to find it then move it to where it should be. Otherwise you might like to restore your back-up making sure that you save it in C:\Legacy\Data.
