Amazing! Back as it was 🥰 Thanks again for your support and guidance, really appreciated!

Thanks trurl, appreciate all your support. So if it replace new flash config folder with old flash config folder (while retaining the .key file from new) will that effectively be a full restore of the old system?

I've actually just managed to get the old flash drive to [temperamentally] read on my Windows PC; is there a folder / file I can transplant from old to new or are we past that point? I managed to backup the config folder before it lost connection again... hoping that was the right one?

Thanks. If I get a value wrong when re-installing (e.g. port number) will that then overwrite the previous instance, effectively losing it?

I have learnt a lot of lessons over the last 24hrs - don't trust Sandisk, do backup flash drives etc. but unfortunately all have been learned too late. I have therefore installed a new flash drive and transferred my key. Fortunately I had a very simple setup so was quick to mirror the previous array and the best news was that my Homeassistant VM restored itself as soon as I re-enabled VMs. However, the same could not be said for my docker containers... Is there any way to recover these or do I have to reinstall and set them all up from scratch again?
