I have backup gbkp files
# In the new directory open <code>name.txt</code> in a text editor and change the content to a unique name. eg: '''Family Tree 1''' to '''Family Tree 1 recovery attempt'''
# In the new directory create a file with name '''<code>need_recover</code>''' . {{man menu|Mind the underscore and the lack of an extension}}. The content of that file is unimportant.
# Start the Gramps, click on program.# Select the family tree with the name you adjusted in step 9eg. '''Family Tree 1 recovery attempt''' ({{man button|Do not double click on the family tree name}}). There should be a red stop sign with next to that filenamefamily tree name. Click on # Select the {{man button|Repair}} button and the {{man label|Repair Family Tree?}} dialog will show, at this point you can {{man button|Stop}} or select the {{man button|RecoverProceed, I have taken a backup}} button. The red stop sign should disappear and you should be able to load that family tree.
