Playlist order accidentally destroyed - How to restore from backup?

[clsven]

I setup for one of my playlist a manual song order and adjusted it.

It worked - in the past.

When I re-visited it now the order is somehow destroyed.

Luckily I have a full backup of MusicBee directory on my backup hard disk.

How can I restore the old order from it?

Read: which file do I have to copy from backup directory into current installation directory to switch back to my original manual order?

Other manual sort orders from other playlists (which I may have changed in the meantime should not be achnged with this operation).

Only the playlist file itself should matter for this. If it's .m3u format you should even be and to open in it in a text editor and see the order.

When you say destroyed, you've tried sorting it by manual order, and that doesn't fix it?

I have recovered the good *.m3u8 file for the playlist.
And now?

You are talking about "open it in a text editor and see the order. ".
You mean I should manually recreate the order for 150 songs?
That cannot be true.

Is there an import *.m3u8 and assign it to playlist "foobar" option?
I don't find it

No, I just mean you can open the file and confirm that the order is what you expect. As long as it is, make a copy just in case.

.m3u8 is a playlist, which you can import through the file menu or even just play from Windows explorer, if you have your file associations or right click menu set up.
