Due to a conflict between Windows 10-1803 update and Adobe Acrobat i was forced to reinstall my whole pc. For the first time i installed Windows with use of my microsoft-account. Microsoft chooses the windows-username automatically and it can't be changed (as far as i know).

So now i have a windows-username that is different from the one i had, when the iMatch backup was made. Restoring the backup works, but still i'm missing a lot of settings (metadata-settings, viewwindow settings etc.).

Is there a way to get them back?

Thanks, Hans

See User Name Alias here.

This allows you to "map" the settings from your old user name to whatever user name you use now.
