lost brightauthor project

Is it possible to recover a project from a SD card, to where a BrightSuthor project has been published. But the project has been lost from the client PC harddrive?

    If you are using a new enough brightauthor project file, you can search the current-sync or local sync xml file for a file ending in extension .bml. If you locate that file in the pool folder, you can rename it to projecdt.bpf and then open it in brightauthor. It will get you the project file itself.

    Hello, I´m in same situation. The man who helped us with our installation has disappeared and I need

    to load and change content myself.

    I tried the renaming of local sync. xml but BA says it can´t open.

    Any advice? 

     

    Thanks :)

    The local-sync.xml isn't the file you're looking for but it will tell you where the file is. Open it and search for .bml that'll get you to the project file location inside the pool directory. Copy and rename to the name in the xml file. Do the same for any media you might want then edit the project and publish it again. I've got an exe somewhere that extracts images, video, html, projects to folders called the same so you can extract complex projects quickly. I'll see if I can dig it out.
