Hello,

I haven't used Synthesia in many years but I reinstalled recently and I know I used to have number of plays, ratings, etc.. on my MIDI tracks.

Is there a way to get this data from somewhere like the %appdata% section of my old PC? What files would I need to pull in, and would it break anything in the new version?

Thanks!
Gregor

Hello!
1- Hold down the Shift key while starting the Synthesia application
2- Click on the Open Data Folder button
3-Copy all the files and paste them following steps 1 and 2 to the new computer, replacing them with the ones you currently have. Keep in mind that if you have saved progressos or fingering on your new computer, they will be lost.

I advise you to make a backup copy of all the files.

Thank you!!!

I had to re-adjust my MIDI folder as I moved from S:\ to C:\ after my latest format. Once I did that, all the tracks seemed to be recognized and ratings re-appeared.

I appreciate it!
