New Windows Installation - how to use my signatures, setting

Postby dabbljues » Sat Oct 15, 2016 1:28 pm

Hi, i have to install Windows on a new harddisk and install newsbin again. The harddisk with the working newsbin is still accessible. How can i use my old settings, signatures filters and so on with the new windwos?
I guess something is inside the registry, the AppData, Newsbin-Programm Directory and User Directories and perhaps some more.
Thanks, Walter

You can just copy them to the new data folder. Exit Newsbin first. You might or might not want to copy the NBI file over. If you use the default install you might want to. If you have different drive letters on this machine than the last, you might not want to.
