--- Begin Message ---Cathy, Thank you for replying. My mistake it is the Legacy logo NOT Ancestry. I do not have any ged-com files. Since I go between several different computers I do use the restore rather than opening files. Still getting used to Win 10. Thanks again, at least I'm not doing anything wrong.

Legacy backup files have always been a zipped file and show the icon for the program that is associated with .zip files. If you haven't added another program this is a folder icon that has a zip on it. Within that zip file are most of the other files you list. I'm not sure what you mean by the Ancestry logo one. It may be that you have something that associates a gedcom file with Ancestry and you have a gedcom in that same folder? I'm not familiar with the apps available for Ancestry. But it wouldn't be included in the Legacy data backup. Or did you mean the Legacy logo? If so that's your main family file - <yourfamilyfilename>.fdb You do not use the files within the Legacy data backup zip directly. You go to Legacy and use File - Restore File when/if you need to use a data backup. If you open files from within the backup zip you create a mess with the file going into a temp folder. If you extract the files using Windows File Explorer or another program you are creating copies of your file that have the same name but are in different folders, that most likely will confuse you later. You use File - Restore File either overwriting your current file of that name OR renaming the file during the restore process.
