Home - Local backups

In Password Depot, you can open and save backup files. If a file got corrupted or was deleted by mistake, you can open a backup file of the database. To do so, please open the Home screen (Home → Backups) and click on the tab Local backup. The following options are available:

  • Open: Opens a selected backup file. To do this, select the desired file in the view and click Open.
  • New database: In the tab Local backup, the option New database is greyed out (since it is not applicable to backup files).
  • Delete database: Delete a selected backup file from the list.
  • Back: If you have changed directories in the file browser, you can use this button to jump back to the previous directory.
  • Forward: If you have previously navigated back one directory in the file browser, you can use this button to jump forward again.
  • Level up: Goes to the parent directory in the file browser.
  • Refresh: Refresh the list view of the backup files stored under Local backup. 
  • Filter: Choose which file formats should be displayed in the backup files' list view. 
  • Search: Search for specific backup files.

HINT: Once you have opened a backup file, you should save it again in its original format by clicking on Database → Save as (Shift + Ctrl + S).
