 +==== 3. Use the extra application to restore ====
 +Restoring the data is processed through the extra tool named "​biostar-restore."​ The tool will be automatically installed when installing BioStar 2 v.2.9.3 and located in C:\Program Files\BioStar 2(x64). ​
 +Since the specific tool for data restoration is separate from BioStar 2, users can attempt to restore data when BioStar 2 isn't running normally due to configuration problems or database issues. \\

 +==== 4. Restorable depending on the backup data version ====
 +If the backup data was generated using a version lower than the current one, it cannot be restored through this new function. \\

 +If the backup data is generated in v.2.9.3, it CANNOT be restored in v.2.9.4 or a higher version of BioStar 2. \\
