Title: what files do I need to recreate my profile
Post by: ped8015 on April 18, 2023, 06:32:20 PM
had an issue with my pc and lost mach4 now I am try to recreate my profile. Using CSMIO-M.

I lost mach4 and have reinstalled Mach4 (5039 i think) and the CSMIO apps and plugins.  I do have a backup of my old mach4 with all files and directory.  What files do I need to move back to my working mach4 directory to have it running again??  Too late to use the help -->> package function..

Thanks,
Phill

Very easy.  I copied the old profile directory into the new mach4 location.  and it works.

You could actually install new like you did, then rename Mach4Hobby to something else, Mach4Hobby_5039, and just copy your entire Mach4Hobby folder over to the new computer. You'd have to get a new license, of course, for the new PC ID. You'd be right where you were, if you were happy with what you had.
