Import csv files into zotero

Hi, I just lost my data doing an upgrade for zotero, the backup was in .csv format and it will not import. Anyone found a workaround?

I did hunt around for this topic, but did not find anything recent and the discussion on Github was from 2014.
  • the backup was in .csv format
    A CSV file isn't remotely a backup of your Zotero library. The CSV export is a one-way transfer for getting Zotero data into a spreadsheet or similar.

    But what do you mean by "I just lost my data doing an upgrade for zotero"? Upgrading Zotero doesn't affect your data.

    If you used Zotero previously, your data would be in the Zotero data directory on the computer where you used it.
