I have backed up infinite painter and it has projects on it but it is not restoring the works only the app installed with default settings, but the .data file on my computer still obviously has the data/projects as its almost 6GBs (C:\Users\-\Documents\Samsung\SmartSwitch\backup\phone id\phone id\phone id\APKFILE -> (name of app i'm trying to restore ).data

I have completely uninstalled infinite painter and cleared it's cache etc. and it is still only restoring to default on re-install and i cannot get the files to appear.

What tool do i use to open the .data file and extract the .proj files so i can manually restore them (ideally) or how do i get the app to restore and have it's settings/pre-loaded projects to maintain during the restoration via smart switch. On the installation on my phone the files are usually just stored under the Android/Data/(nameofapp)/.../project files so i'm confused why it's bundled this way

Thanks.
