Thanks for creating 'poof' ... used it ... worked like a charm.

Both of us are having to try and re-collect those days of old ..

From what I re-call, if one turned off Legacy Files in a course, that would not hide/remove resources/links to files etc. in the course itself ... thus would be included in the backup file.

I my test of clipoof, ran clipoof on a backup that had legacy files, restored that course with the clipoof backup .mbz file.  Course restored just fine but present in course admin menu was the link for Legacy files.   Turning off was ok to do with that course because it really wan't using Legacy files.   Everything did work with it off.

Agree that it is worth biting the bullet and getting courses out of legacy ... by whatever means.
