How to recover the strategies?
Recently, the computer has failed
Fortunately, I had made a backup of the following folders, confident that I recovered all.
I saved all the data of the following path
C: \ ProgramData \ TS Support \ MultiCharts64 \ StudyServer \ Studies
I used Multicharts 9.0
On the new computer, I installed the same version of Multicharts.
I replaced all the files following the structure of the backup
I opened the PowerLanguageEditor.
Unfortunately inside PowerLanguageEditor see listed strategies defualt, but not mine.
Why?
Ideas?
I also launched Compile \ AllStudies but do not appear my strategies.
Always and only the default
Is there a way to "force" the PowerLanguageEditor to index all of the strategies that are in the folders ... \ StudyServer \ Studies?

Re: How to recover the strategies?
1. You should have made a copy of the WHOLE directory of
C:\ProgramData\TS Support\MultiCharts64
ps. harddisks are cheap and plentiful.
2. go to your backup folder
C:\ProgramData\TS Support\MultiCharts64\StudyServer\Studies\SrcEl\Strategies
You should be able to find your strategy there. The filename is modified, you will need to give it a guess. If you look for it in the "Date Modified" column, you should be able to spot it easily.

Re: How to recover the strategies?
I had written about 200 strategies. Each strategy, call on average 30 functions.
With the method you suggest, I can retrieve only one code at a time. To retrieve 230 codes, take me very very long time.
Is there a way to force PowerLanguageEditor to recognize all at once?
To force PowerLanguageEditor to update list? Since I backup DLL, SrcCpp, SrcEl, PowerLanguageEditor doesn't recompile, (DLL are present) but only update list
Multicharts before and after, it's same release, same build.
Can PowerLanguageEditor recognize compiled strategy ?
in the presence also of the source codes?
The work that you suggest me, is extremely tiring.
I'd like to recognize all the strategies in one fell swoop.
Is it possible?
If it will be impossible, can you kindly tell me in which file PowerLanguageEditor saves the list of strategies compiled?
Maybe graph_backup.xml ?
I backup all C:\Program Files\TS Support\MultiCharts64
including subdir.
Considering that I had made up everything, including folders and SrcCpp SrcEl and Dlls.
Thanks for support

Re: How to recover the strategies?
Yes you can import this file. It has all the indicators, functions, and strategies.::
Maybe graph_backup.xml ?
That's not what you said in the first post; you did not say you have the whole directory.::
I backup all C:\Program Files\TS Support\MultiCharts64
::
