Transfering Settings

Post by Glacier2112 »

Hello everyone, I am a new user of this program.  I am quite impressed with it so far.  Am wondering if there is way to transfer settings and any customizing of menus from a laptop to another computer.  I tried copying all the files from one computer to another and settings did not follow.  Is there a hidden *.ini or some other file.

Thanks  Glacier

use
view | actions | export settings
...
copy the resulting .reg file to the other computer where x2 is installed
& d-click on the .reg file to install the settings there.

(But note that the installation folders should be relatively the same on both computers.)
For more information, see pp 168-169 in the User Manual (v1.2.0.0-1)

Thanks, had I collapsed the top level bookmarks in the help file I would have found the answer quickly.  Anyway this solved the problem.  Thanks again....
