Redo Files

You can redo specific files or an entire job, but the way you’ll do it depends on the job type.

If your job doesn’t delete or replace the source files, see Source Files are Intact below. Otherwise, see Restore from Backup below.

Source Files are Intact

If your job keeps the source files untouched, it’s easy to redo specific files or even redo the entire job.

Redo Specific Files

To redo a few specific files:

1. Go to the Jobs tab
2. Select the job
3. Click the Skip List tab on the bottom right
4. Drag and drop the file(s) into the Queuelist on the left, OR

   

5. Select the file(s) and click Removeto have QuikFile add them to the list the next time the job runs

   

Redo the Whole Job

If your job doesn’t delete the source files, QuikFile will keep track of files it has already converted in the Skip List tab. This is different than the logs. It’s a list of files that have already been converted so QuikFile won’t keep converting the same files over and over.

To redo a job, simply clear the list:

1. Select Jobs tab
2. Select the job
3. Select the Skip List tab near the bottom right of the screen
4. You’ll see a list of files that have already been done
5. Click Clear to clear the list

If this is a scheduled job, files will begin converting the next time the job runs. If it’s a manual job see How to Run a Job.

Restore from Backup

If your job deletes or replaces the source files, you’ll need to restore the originals from backup.

1. Go to the Jobs tab
2. Select the job
3. Click Edit > Advanced
4. Note what the job’s Backup Folder is
5. Browse to the backup folder in Windows Explorer
6. Copy the files or folders you want to redo, then paste them back in their original location

If this is a scheduled job, files will begin converting the next time the job runs. If it’s a manual job see How to Run a Job.
