      Re: Is the Device Key restored after upgrade?

      my hard drive died in a power outage on Aug 7 and my manual backups are from January and earlier (lost a ton of manual settings), I did not write down the Device Key anywhere but is there a way to find or restore it from the manual backups / xmls I have?

        It uses the ssh key which should be in the backup config.

        I assume you mean the ACB key? If you send me the NDI or Hint/Identifier in chat I can try to look it up for you.
