Hi dxlclothing !

 

That i know, osC internal backup routine makes backups of minor things, not products.

You'll need to backup your products with an utility from your ISP to backup them.

 

Hope this helps you !

Sorry, bull ! The admin->tools->backup feature backups the whole database including products and everything. If the backup you are trying to restore does not contain your products then something went wrong already when you backuped your old database. It could already haven been corrupted. If you still have the backup in uncompressed format you should be able to view it in a text editor and see if you product definitions are there or not.
