In the unlikely event that you see a message warning you that 
your security file has been damaged or deleted, you can restore 
your sysadmin password and list of users. You can use either the 
Restore Security From Backup wizard, or the Repair Security 
command on the Maintenance menu, as described in this section.  

Do not use the Repair Security command unless your security file has 
been damaged. It removes all user passwords from your security 
settings.  

1.  Start Simply Accounting. If the security file is damaged, the 

Restore Security From Backup wizard appears. 

2.  Follow the steps on the screen to restore your most recent 

backup for this company.  

3.  Re-enter all your user passwords. (On the Setup menu, 

choose Set Up Users, then enter a password for each user.)  

1.  Start Simply Accounting.  

2.  In the Select Company window, choose Restore From 

Backup to restore the most recent backup of your Simply 
Accounting data to a temporary folder. 

3.  Copy the .SDW file from the temporary folder to the folder 

where you store your current Simply Accounting data. 

4.  Open your data using the sysadmin name and the password 

that was in effect on the date you made the backup. 

5.  In the Home window, on the Maintenance menu, choose 

Database Utilities, then Repair Security. 

6.  On the Setup menu, choose Set Up Users, then enter 

passwords for the users.
