IT IS HIGHLY RECOMENDED TO CREATE THE BACK UP REGULARLY (WEEKLY IS THE RECOMENDED TERM FOR BACKING UP THE SOFTWARE). AND COPY THE BACKED INTO A DVD or ANY EXTERNAL SOURCE.

Restore function is provided only to be used in the event when the Server computer is attacked by a virus and all data is to be erased. So the DVD where the data is being backed up can be used to restore the latest Data after SETS is being reinstalled

IMPORTANT NOTE

While Restoring make sure the name of the Backup file is "SETS.bak" for the academic year 2010-2011 and "SETS20112012.bak" for the year 2011-12 and so on. Otherwise the Software will not accept the Back up or the backup taken will be corrupted.

It is highly recommended to keep a Printed Copy of this File
