My System: Dream 500s Vista PC
Factory reset- what do I lose?

I can no upload my edited channel list to my DM 500s (clone) using Dreambox edit. Used to work fine. Now I get "error sending file "services" to the Dreambox". I read that I should do factory reset to fix this.

What exactly will I lose by a factory reset? What files will I needed backed up before I do a reset?

Factory reset will delete all your services, favourites, tuner configuration (motor settings), etc.

Your plugins will remain as far as I can remember.

Try loading your services using Dreambox Control Centre before you reset, or at least use it to back up your existing settings.

Factory reset is ever the last solution to do.
Mayby, you've charged too much addons on your receiver and it can't work fine now.

Dm 500 has not a great of free space.
If you delete something, it's really possible you can resolve all your problems.
