every time I try to restore a backup from a removable disk it keeps saying configuration file (.cfg) contains invalid data, the backup i generated using robotstudio and even when I backed up new from the teach pendant and I tried to restore it it done the same error. and If any other way to transfer programs from robotstudio to the teach pendant or the robot itself

    Just load the modules that you need from the removable disk or connect via the service port using Robotstudio.

    Hi !

    Virtual controller is not same as real controller. So backup from it does not fit.
    If you have changed only some module files - then use module loading into task as proposed by lemster68.

    If you have lots of changes including also configuration, then I have usually copied changed parts of virtual controller backup into real controller backup and with diff tool taking back parts of files that should stay unchanged in real controller. That requires a bit knowledge and expierience, but is duable with "try-n-fail" method.

    NB! Keep always last known good backup somewhere in safe place!

    Hi...
    Would it be possible to provide the configuration file? I've had this type of problem in the past; it was a bug (that hasn't been fixed) that causes this kind of issue.
    Good job!
