Backup settings (Solved)

Post by bawldiggle »

Hi, I am new here. A beginner! :shock:

Can toolbar custom settings be backed up and copied to another PC?

I have been trialing PDF-XChange on one PC for about a week.

Thank you. :)

Hi bawldiggle,

Thanks for the post and welcome to the forums! :)

This can be done by, in the Viewer, going to Edit --> Export all Settings to Data File. This will then save the settings to a specified location, which you can then email to yourself, or save on a USB stick, etc. and, once accessible by the secondary computer, you can then import these settings by choosing the option to Import Settings from Data File from Edit.

Cheers, hope that helps!

Thanks Will for your prompt response, :)

Does exporting save "Preferences" too?
