After a work out, i wanted to download the data but found garbage in the files system. Even though other data files had correct filenames, they contained a mixture of normal data and JS code.
Filenames look like this:
```
2 0- 4(!"D &0!$240h.dA`
20 0!"$!2T *!$(4 ""`ah
```
6 files whith those cyrted file names)

Trying to download this file does not finish, and backup procedure stops at this file:
666165,66,66 1648666167,65,5

Any suggestion how to avoid this?

Unfortunately, when something like this happened to me, I found no other solution than to do a total reset of the watch

Argh, sorry. That's extremely surprising with newer firmwares.

Do you get any kind of obvious error from the backup tool if you look on the developer console? I wonder whether somehow it could be made a bit more resilient.

Otherwise, maybe connect with the Web IDE and pull out any files that contain data you want to keep, and then do an 'install default apps' on it

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```
Your code goes here

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
