does anyone know how to recover a deleted crate? simply copying the backup subcrate file does not work.
Gotta love a forum search that does not work.

Ok, I figured it out,

ON AN INTERNAL DRIVE:
go to _Serato_\Library\Export Backups there are zip files containing your backups, unzip the one you need based on timestamp it will be a database.V2 file, rename your old database.V2 file in the _Serato_ folder and copy this one in there.

ON AN EXTERNAL DRIVE:
go to _Serato_\Library\Backups there are zip files containing your backups, unzip the one you need based on timestamp will be a location.sqlite file rename the old location.sqlite file in
_Serato_\Library and copy this one there.
