1. The electricity went off yesterday while I was working. I opened Legacy
again and didn't notice any oddities. Most of today I’ve been comparing 20 pgs
of names submitted to me. At one point it hung on marriages – after clicking
on the marriage icon I got a blank marriage screen and couldn’t get out a
conventional way, so I used task manager to stop the program, which it said was
Not Responding. When I opened it again I had the same man and woman listed as
second marriages for each – just same names listed twice, and another person as
wife of my ‘main’ subject; I was able to unlink him. The 2 marriages weren’t
in the index as 2 people. Deleted and reentered.
2. I’ve had ‘Legacy Not Responding’ – just a couple of times since I’ve had
it. Do I do something to cause that? Like start typing or enter before it has
digested the last move??
3. With all of that as a preface, I just found 2nd marriage info in my
comparison that I thought I had entered months ago and the ‘wife’ is only
connected to her parents now and they have no ancestors, I would not
have entered them 'loose' – is it possible to ‘look at’ or ‘Compare’ a backup,
or open it under another name? I suppose if I Restore it will overwrite my
current files and delete anything I did the past 2-3 days, which may not have
been a lot I spent a lot of time on findagrave and ancestry; but I don't know
what would be lost. I wasn’t sure I should backup after the electricity
stopped in case entries were damaged. If I could just look at an older one
maybe there were children, siblings, and more links connected with that
marriage?? (If so, where do I even find physical backups {not under File}? I
use the default with current date.)
