Basic Help in Getting to Know Studio (none project making)
The Studio software comes with an excellent built in Users Manual that you can access by clicking on the Help menu on the top tool bar of the Studio software and then clicking on Users Manual.
This manual can seem a bit daunting at first, but don't be put off as it also has a "Find" option on the top tool bar of the manual window, type in there what you want help with eg cut lines and it will open the window containing the help you need, if it doesn't find what you want try a different word or you can use the menus on the left hand side and navigate to the topic you need help with.
Below are none project making tutorials, where I have tried to explain how some of the functions work, this thread is a work in progress and will be added to as and when.

Backing up Your Studio Designs and Media Settings
I like to manually back up all folders and files for any software I use that contain custom changes etc in case of a computer crash or my HDD gets corrupted.
If you share this information on any other forum, I would appreciate it if you don't claim credit for my findings but give credit to UKScrappers.
I've been is discussion with the Silhouette Software Team for a week as of today, getting as much information as I can about how I can back up my Studio media and library folders, I've put all the information together with what I am going to do to keep my files safe based on what I can't post :rolleyes: in the attached pdf document, you can either read it here or download for future reference.
