 In case of a data loss event (system failure, partial hard disk failure, accidental mass delete of trades...) you can restore original data from a backup. There are two methods to create a backup:
-  - Automatically: to change settings navigate to Header / General settings / [[te3:general_settings#main|Main]]   \\ \\
+  - **Automatically:** backup is generated every 12 hours by default. To set a different time period navigate to {{:te3:settings_logo.png?nolink|}} Settings / General settings / [[te3:general_settings#main|Main]]   \\ \\

 You should only use backup in case of a data loss event. Note, that after you initiate ''Restore'' all settings will be configured according to data from the selected backup and statistics will probably no longer be current (use ''Reset'' function of [[te3:mass_edit|Mass edit panel]]).
