The version of sample data you need will depend on the model of the version of FieldWorks you are using.
To load sample data into FieldWorks:
Click one of the sample projects, such as “Sena 3”. Download and save this file to your computer. If you find that your browser (e.g., I.E.) has renamed the files to .zip, you will need to rename them first to .fwbackup in order for the FieldWorks restore function to work.
Launch FieldWorks (FLEx).
Open the Restore a Project dialog by doing one of the following:

  1. If the welcoming Language Explorer dialog appears, click “Restore a project from a backup file”.
  2. Or if the main FieldWorks Language Explorer window appears, choose File -> Project Management -> Restore a Project.

On the Restore a Project dialog, click “Another location” and click Browse.
Navigate to the downloaded sample project file (which may be in your Downloads directory by default), click the file, and click Open.
Click OK.
