Question / Help Can I recover a deleted scene?

Ive just deleted a very complex scene on obs 22.0.2
Is there a way to recover it?

Only if you backed it up earlier.

Scenes can be backed up by Exporting them to a .json file in the Scene collection menu.

Or if you had your entire computer backed up to another drive.

Hi, thanks.
For what Ive seeing, export feature exports a scene collection but not a single scene.
It happens that Ive the scene Ive deleted by mistake, in another obs scene collection. So, It would be great if I could export only that scene of my project and then importing only that scene to the project im working on.
Is this possible?

No, I wish it was. Exporting is made for transferring from machine to machine, or installation of OBS to installation of OBS. When you import a scene collection you've exported, it makes another scene collection with the same content. There's now way, currently, to move a single scene from one collection to another. The only way you could do it would be to manually edit the scene collection .json file.

If that was the single most complex element, it might be worth it to duplicate the scene collection that contains that scene, and then recreate the rest of the collection around it.
