sync files from old drive

I have no idea if this has been brought up yet but, I think being able to move files from an old drive after a computer wipe or reinstall should be put in. I personally have had to reinstall windows multiple times due to my subpar knowledge of PCs and have "lost" clips of gameplay while still having the folder. I want to be able to reinstall outplayed after the wipe and drag those files into the new capture's folder and have them show up in outplayed. (or if I get a new faster drive/bigger size drive, to be able to cut and paste those folders into new folder and have them show up in outplayed for easier editing/rewatch)
TLDR: Old files able to move and sync after reinstalling outplayed without backup.

*Sorry for bad english

    I see that’s unfortunate that’s it’s not available to do that yet :c

    I’ll probably just wait before importing because I won’t be able to see my apm and events that happen during the match on imported video clips

    It's in our backlog but not in the near future. For now the only option is to add the videos using the import option here.

    You can use the backup and restore option to create a backup of an old Outplayed and restore it to a new one.....

    I was not able to do this because I had thought that you can just click and drag the files over into the newly downloaded outplayed folder. I had no clue about hte backup and restore. Now i just have at least a 1tb of clips that cannot be synced with outplayed and I would love to be able to.

    The thing is I just have the files of the videos like the capture folder but the overwolf itself is gone since it was on my C drive. I only have the videos because I made them save to my other drive F because it is bigger. Until my PC drive crashed and I had t reinstall windows, I did not know about the backup file option. I thought I can just crag the old file sinto the newly made captures folder once I reinstalled outplayed.
