I recently suffered a PC crash and had to wipe my drive and restart. I have a backup file from Website X5 called project.iwprj2 - but there is not a way for me to import it to my Website X5 Evo 2019.2.7! Is there a way I can restore the file or am I stuck rebuilding a new website?

David, sadly it is unlikely you can restore your project from this single file, even if you retrieved it from the backup directory. Unfortunately "backup" is a misnomer that Incomedia should address. When a backup is made it creates a copy of the main project file (iwprj2) and more recently a fonts file, but unfortunately it does not copy other required files and folders, it is suitable some of the time if the problem is not catastrophic and no other files are lost.
If you ever did a backup or image of your hard drive you may be able to restore the project folder from that?
WX5 does have an extremely good backup option but it is call EXPORT.Go to step 5 export project and it will create an iwzip file which is a full backup with all requirements to restore your project to any PC, please make frequent use of this in future (and rename as appropriate to keep multiple versions).
