Where are backups stored?

Post by sclg »

Sorry if this is an FAQ.
File - Settings - Save all settings appears to do something but WHERE does it save them to??

I need to move XYPlorer to a new PC and I just want some way of copying all the settings across.

Thanks
Steve

Backups are stored in the same folder as the XYplorer.exe. So all you have to do is copy that directory across to your new PC, launch XYplorer and your settings would be preserved and in effect. That's the beauty of it being portable 8)

It's saving the settings from RAM to your XY application folder...nothing fancy here...just pick up your XY related INI & DAT files and you're on your way...
Still spending WAY TOO much time here! But it's such a pleasure helping XY be a treasure!
