Fredrik Svahnberg Posted November 14, 2012 Report Share Posted November 14, 2012 To recover a .watch file from a display computer, first go to the display computer, find the folder where watchout is installed, and in that folder you will find a folder named " Shows " In the Shows folder, you will find more folders, each with the name of a stored show. Open the folder for the show you wish to recover. There, you will find a file named Spec Copy the Spec file to use for the recovery process. The procedure for re-creating a show file from a Spec file is quite straightforward...1. Rename the Spec file DFC_Data (no file extension)2. Zip the file3. Rename the resulting Zip file to Whatever.watchBest regards,Fredrik SvahnbergDataton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dataton AB Posted November 14, 2012 Report Share Posted November 14, 2012 Neil, You can find the previous topic if you search for "show file". Also click on the button to the right of search text which asks for which section. Select "This forum". Regards, Jan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
