I can't access this one sequence on the main file, back up and the back up back up USB drive... The sequence still plays on xscheduler, but I can't get in to update the sequence in xlights.

That's my understanding on how it works, but I could be wrong.

Copy the file with the .xbkp extension to a new name, then change the extension to .xml and you should be able to open it in xlights.
