Restore Data From Deactivated Lime Survey

Every trouble has solutions with them

As yesterday I am going for healing. I skip a day of writing on Medium, well the time is not good at all, I forgot to creating a backup plan so I didn’t writing at all. But today, I am panicked about losing all survey results from lime survey after deactived survey.

After that, I couldn’t access the response survey anymore.

Okay, the first thing I did, is search on Google for the solutions, and I found this from Lime Survey help center.

From that, I shouldn’t be panicked as it can be restored. First of all, start again the survey
