Preferences

[Jayee]

Hi,

Whenever I set up a new Act workstation (v 5.0.4), it takes a while to set up the Act preferences.

As we have a standard set of preferences, I was wondering if there was a file containing them stored somewhere on the C drive, so that I could back it up to our network and just copy the file to a new workstation, saving myself lots of time and hassle ?

Regards,
Jay

All preferences are stored in the registry. So take one of the computers that is already set up and:

1. Export the settings using the Act Data Diag Tool to backup the Act registry (or simply just export the whole [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Symantec\ACT!] key and subkeys)

2. Import .reg file on the new computer
