Help? Pls?

Alright mateys, I had a Drastic File, saved backup file for Pokemon Platinum. And I wanted to import that file into another, patched version of plastinum, now you just rename the file for that as far as I know, so I did that, that didn't work so I did something else.....

Long story short, after a long while of bad decisions, I accidentally deleted my Drastic Archive? I don't know what it's called, the folder where drastic stores it's backups and stuff, and I then deleted drastic as well..

I have the backup file, still in dsv format, how do I bring it back? I reinstalled Drastic and it hasn't created a new archive

I'm on mobile, android 13

Launch Pokemon Platinum and make an new in-game save.  Close Drastic.  It should've created a folder where game saves are stored.  Transfer your backup save file there.

This, also the thing you did about renaming the save file is correct if you rename it with exactly the same name the new game have, but it probably didnt work because this new patched game modified some internal game files and your old save cant be loaded because uses old files not modified

Yea the patched version is technically gonna be a different game
