[App] App Data Manage Tool - Create backups from current state of apps and games

I must be doing something wrong

Are you on the same release (15254.369)? If you are, I must have missed something.

I copied the files, installed the cert and the dependencies, then the app. But the screen just refreshes and nothing is installed.

Sorry to be a pain, but any suggestions would be appreciated.

I re-downloaded these from your repository on GitHub along with the cert and the appxsym files. I used the Device Portal instead but I still get an error.

Not very helpful:
Failure reason: error 0x800413A0: While processing the request, the system failed to register the windows.repositoryExtension extension due to the following error: <Error message string not found>.. Failure text: Unavailable(0x800413a0)

Maybe it's just me. Like I said, I gave up on learning to program this stuff. Looks like I need to get the basics down too. The Device Portal seems very straight forward. I linked to the appx and each of the three dependencies. But still get the same error. Did I need to run the cert first? Or copy it to a directory?

Can data be recovered across platforms?

Can backup application data be restored on other mobile platforms? For example, Android?

No this is impossible, or almost impossible, applications are different as they save data in different ways on other mobile platforms.

Developing such type of application would require extremely hard skill of both platform and every application you want support and can never work with all application.

So the answer is no, prepare yourself to lose all data.

Is a good product, look forward to the official version

Unfortunately, it is only a test phase. There are many applications that cannot read the data size properly. We look forward to your official release to be able to perform a complete backup and restore on any mobile phone across platforms.

The "Microsoft Store" on my Lumia 930 has suddenly stopped and it doesn't start anymore :(
Could someone upload the appx/xap of the store?

Thanks!

Any hint on why when backing up apps some files are 0kb even when I'm sure they aren't? Could it be due to apps locking files and restricting access to App Data Manage??

Hello there!
I have an old Lumia 640 LTE. Recently I decided to turn it on again and I installed an update, so my current OS is Windows 10 (v.1703, build 10.0.15063.1868). I heard about this app making backups for apps and I want to backup some of my apps, including WhatsApp. Unfortunately, it seems not to work properly.

I correctly setup everything, since other apps, like Telegram, backupped, without any problems. WhatsApp appears to be "always calculating" the size. Even if I'll press the "Backup" button, it will close itself eventually, after some time. I read about some problems with x50 devies, but mine is a 640, so it's not a problem. I read also about a problem with BIG apps, and my Whatsapp is like 800MB, described here:

I have problem to backup wechat app data. It has around 100M, but app data manage tool takes for ever to get the app data size, and it just close itself after made a few hundred KB backup.
Sent from my Nexus 6 using XDA-Developers Legacy app

But I found no answers.

I followed instructions on the app Interop Tools for unlocking device, and the only thing I I noticed is that the "checkbutton" on the Interop/Cap unlock turns off randomly.

What the problem could be so? Can I backup in some way my WhatsApp?

Yes, i have exactly the same problem with the Lumia 730.
That's very bad, if i couldn't backup my WhatsApp.

    App Data Manage Tool is a tool for Windows 10 Mobile devices to create backups from current state of apps and games, and restore them at a later time, or to another phone, or to your phone after a factory reset.

    Although Microsoft introduced some APIs to backup apps into OneDrive, many apps still don't use it :( (Hill Climb Racing, WhatsApp, are you listening? :confused:)

    This tool helps you to create local backup archives from any of your apps and games; then you can copy them to your PC and then to any phone so you can restore that archive.

    Additionally, you can reset the state of apps, which is almost the same as reinstalling them, but is faster :) and also it can be done on some system apps (which you can't reinstall them)

    Your phone must be interop unlocked. Here's a quick how to (for Lumias except x50 series):

    • Download Interop Tools by Gustave M. (ARM version) and its Dependencies from here and copy them to your phone.
    • Set your phone to Developer Mode (from Settings, Update & security, For Developers)
    • Tap on each of Dependencies from File Explorer, then tap on Interop Tools appx.
    • Open Interop Tools from app list, go to "Interop Unlock", tap on "Restore NDTKSvc" and then reboot your phone.
    • Open Interop Tools again and go to "Interop Unlock", now tap on "Interop/Cap unlock".
    (For x50 series and non-Lumia phones, the steps might be different. search for it)

    After you Interop Unlocked your phone, installing App Data Manage Tool is easy.
    • Just get it from the download link below, extract the ZIP and copy its contents to your phone, and tap on the appx from File Explorer to install. (you might need to install Dependencies first)

    Download App Data Manage Tool Beta

    See and contribute to the source code on GitHub

    The interface is easy to use, look yourself ;)

    App Data Manage Tool v2.1 released with numerous improvements.

    The tool now includes a caching mechanism, so app loads much faster (after initial loading first time you open the app). I'm also releasing this as a separate open-source library, so other apps can take advantage of this method to load information about installed apps quickly.

    Other improvements are:
    • Added the ability to backup legacy apps on SD card.
    • You can now easily create a zip file from installation files of apps. It comes handy when you want to repack an app.
    • UI Improvements.

    Hi guys.
    Unfortunately I'm busy these days, so I can't continue updating this tool. I published the source code to my GitHub, so other devs can help improving the app. :)

    i have on suggetion : this app able to do backup apps on phone + sd card (app data) _ you can add a new function to the app to make file from installed apps to .Appx OR .Appxbundle .. so after uninstallation of app ...we dont need to download the app from store.. and we can share the apps..

    can this is done? if yes then i think its usefull...

    and if done than this app is mindblowing because ...its contain everything app+data...:highfive:
