Would not restore database from 0.8.6

I’ve been using Squirrel since 2011 and downloaded my original version from the website. Before upgrading I backed up all my information to a .squirrel and a .squirrelbackup file.

After I upgraded to 0.9.2 it pulled in an old squirrelbackup file from my home directory automatically. I tried to do a File > Restore Database to grab the correct backup but it gives me an error.

I would have lost 3 years worth of transactions if I hadn’t saved the old application on a backup drive. I was able to replace this new 0.9.2 version with my older 0.8.5 version and restore my database.

I also tried to export my data to QIF and OFX but the new version just hangs when I try to import that data.

Update 0.9.4

Backed up a database last night. Something went wrong with my transactions so I tried to do a Restore database. Squirrel just opens up blank and wants to “Click here to add your first account” What a piece of garbage. Don’t wait your time ont his app.
