It only presents one, and I almost clicked right through it myself today. I don't remember that capability being in v 7.5 at all, let alone so prominently. And it seems the button is located in the normal "okay" location in the window. I would prefer it be smaller or off to the side or something. Or maybe two "are you sure?" pop-ups. Or... why is it in there at all? When would you want to do that? --Paula in Texas Researching: Adair Baker Beasley Benson Betz Bigley Blagrave Burton Chapman Clement Clough Coppernoll Costine Daulton Dinwiddie Doody Ellis Exline Field Floran Floyd Gates Goodale Gordon Gump Hale Harbaugh Hind Hopkins Hughes Hurdle Jones Klein Koyle Laswell McDonald Misner Passwaters Pelton Roberts Roche Ryburn Sanford Short Singer Sullivan Weller Williams

I am terrified of accidentally clicking on it. I sure hope that it presents at least two “are you sure” warnings.

The easiest way would be to save your current file with a different name or save it as a copy with a different name and then restore your family file from the backup that has the links. After it has been restored to the point before you deleted the links go to the copy of your family file then search for those individuals that you changed: search for individual> what to look for” change date equal to a date after the point of your last backup then tag the search list. You can then export all the tagged individuals to a new file or import only the tagged individuals into your current file.

I have put so much information since, it may be better to manually relink the pics. Can I back the file now. Then take the last backed up media file and change the name to match the data file. Then restore. Would it accept or reject the media file? Morris On Thursday, April 3, 2014 10:41 AM, Sherry/Support <she...@legacyfamilytree.com> wrote: Morris, The pictures are still where they were.
