    Step 3: Click Export on the right, and then copy / paste all of the data into Notepad++ or Notepad. IMPORTANT: If you save a copy of the 
exported data, it will help you stay organized if you make a new folder on your computer that is labelled with the DATE of the backup,
this way you can easily restore data from a certain time or day.
    Step 4: Click the small silver Import icon in the upper left corner.  Paste the data to re-import it and click the Import button below the text box.
