      Make sure to select this option only, so as not to overwrite your references.
    6. Select the Perform Restore button to import the file.

    The style will be added to your output style list in red and can be used as any other output style on that list. You may have to add the output style using the Output Style Manager accessed by selecting it under the Bibliography menu in your account. Enter the name of the new output style and add it as a Favorite.
