I am getting the following output:


Reading backup file...
FRAME 28618 (100.0%... Read entire backup file...

done!

WARNING Foreign key constraint violated.

Failed to open input: C:\Users\myusername/AppData/Roaming/Signal/config.json
Error : Failed to open database

note that i am using the signal desktop beta app, turns out I have to --importfromdesktop "C:\Users\myusername\AppData\Roaming\Signal Beta" "C:\Users\myusername\AppData\Roaming\Signal Beta"

Maybe this could be a default location to check for?

Thanks! Should be fixed now... I'll close this now, but please let me know if it's still a problem.

Note by the way, the WARNING Foreign key constraint violated has nothing to do with this, and is a problem in the Android backup. You might be running into https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Android/issues/12703.
