Marg, The .usr files contain the settings for the various Legacy functions eg. reports. Normally you should not need to bother with them, but sometimes they do get corrupted in which case there is a Reset Button which you can use to reset the file. This restores the default so you will have to redo all your customisations. Rarely, you may find it necessary to delete a .usr file, but I suggest contacting the list before so doing.
As already reported, these files are not backed up during the back-up process, the only ones which are are your data files. It is easy to see which are backed-up, because when you agree to back-up the screen gives a list of the options, and only the files which you check will be backed up. Please note that the Multimedia Back-up works rather differently to the data back-ups – details given in the Help files.

If this has been asked and answered, I apologize. A newbie question: What is in the .usr files. I thought when I backed up I was including everything?
