Hi Ryan,

The simplest way to open a particular file is to double-click on it using Windows or OS X. It will then become the default file for that business.

Thanks for your help, however this doesnt appear to be working. when we first done this it told us it was an older version and was only going to save it as a back up. How do we get the new back up to register on solar and therefore be the default account. Thanks for your help!

Hi Ryan,

Rename the file to remove the word 'backup' from the filename, then double-click on it to open the file. Does that work?

Regards,
