Help/Troubleshooting, Profile Folder, Open Folder, to open the profile folder. Close TB and copy the profile folder to a backup location. To restore, delete the contents of the current profile folder (not the folder) and copy in the contents of the backup profile folder. The current and backup profile folders may have different names, e.g. sbre1234.default and ycvr6743,default, but the structure inside is the same. If you don't want to completely overwrite the current profile, parts of the backup can be imported without affecting the current data.
