How to Restore Deleted Assets

The information in this Wiki Page applies to TRS19, Trainz Plus and TRS22 and describes the methods that can be used to restore assets deleted by Content Manager.

Notes: Error creating thumbnail: /bin/bash: line 1: /usr/bin/convert: No such file or directory Error code: 127 Base, Built-in, Packaged and Payware assets cannot be deleted using Content Manager. Not even those that have been made Obsolete by more recent updates. Error creating thumbnail: /bin/bash: line 1: /usr/bin/convert: No such file or directory Error code: 127 Packaged and Payware assets can only be deleted by Uninstalling the DLC Package that installed them. This is done from the Content Store option selected from the Trainz Launcher.

Restore Deleted DLS Assets

Deleted assets that were originally Installed from DLS can be easily restored by installing them again from the DLS

Deleted assets that were installed from the DLS are the easiest of all to restore. Simply use Content Manager to locate the assets and download them again.
Error creating thumbnail: /bin/bash: line 1: /usr/bin/convert: No such file or directory Error code: 127	Select the Download Station filter from the Filter drop down menu
Error creating thumbnail: /bin/bash: line 1: /usr/bin/convert: No such file or directory Error code: 127	Optional: Type part of the asset name in the Search box to narrow the search
Error creating thumbnail: /bin/bash: line 1: /usr/bin/convert: No such file or directory Error code: 127	Right Click  on the asset name in the displayed list and select the  Download  option
However, if for some reason you are unable to access the DLS and the deletion occurred during the last 7 days, then the assets can still be recovered from the automatic backups that Content Manager creates when assets are deleted. These backups are only held for 7 days. See  Restoring Assets from the Backup for the details.

Restore Deleted .cdp File Assets

Deleted assets that were installed from .cdp files can be easily restored by reinstalling them from the same .cdp files

Restore Deleted Payware and Packaged Assets

	Payware and Packaged assets that were installed from a DLC package can be restored by reinstalling the same DLC Package
	If a Packaged asset is also on the DLS then it can be restored from there
