# Restoring Bookmarks, Reading List, and Named Windows in Orion | ||
|
||
If you are experiencing issues with your bookmarks, reading list, or named windows in Orion, you can restore them from the automatic backups created after each update. | ||
|
||
## Backup Location and Naming Convention | ||
|
||
- Orion creates backups of your bookmarks, reading list, and named windows after each update. These backups are stored in the ```~/Library/Application Support/Orion RC/Defaults/``` directory. | ||
- The backup folders are named with the prefix "bk_" followed by a version number. The folder with the highest version number contains the most recent backup. | ||
|
||
## Step-by-Step Instructions | ||
|
||
1. Close Orion if it is currently running. | ||
2. Open Finder and navigate to the ```~/Library/Application Support/Orion RC/Defaults/``` directory: | ||
- Click on the Finder icon in your dock. | ||
- In the menu bar, select **Go** > **Go to Folder** or press **Shift-Command-G** on your keyboard. | ||
- Paste the following path: ```~/Library/Application Support/Orion RC/Defaults/``` | ||
3. Locate the backup folder with the highest version number (it will start with "bk_") and open it. | ||
4. To restore: | ||
- **Bookmarks**: Copy the "favourites.plist" file from the backup folder to the "Defaults" folder, replacing the existing file. | ||
- **Reading List**: Copy the "reading_list.plist" file from the backup folder to the "Defaults" folder, replacing the existing file. | ||
- **Named Windows**: Copy the ".local_named_windows.plist" file from the backup folder to the "Defaults" folder, replacing the existing file. | ||
5. Launch Orion to see the restored data. |
