The Force Reimport app for Crowdin allows you to re-import files in your project while keeping your content unchanged. This can be useful when you update import settings such as SRX segmentation rules, update settings in the pre-import processor applications or update file format parser settings.

## How it works

 - **Select files**: Visit the Tools section of your Crowdin project to select one or more files to reimport. This application also registers a context menu item in the Files section of the Crowdin project.

 - **Trigger reimport**: Click the Force Re-import button to start the process.

 - **Monitor progress**: Watch the progress bar and status updates to track the reimport process.

 - **View results**: Once complete, review the results and any error messages.
 
**Note:** The app will add a new line to the contents of the crowdin file and upload it to the crowdin to force a re-import. It will then upload the original file again. **This may result in two revisions being created in the Crowdin.**
