Exporting Cumulus Toolbox rules and settings?

Post by yv1hx »

Hi Weather enthusiast!

Is possible to export the Toolbox settings and rules from a PC to another without writing all the settings (rules, e-mail settings, etc) from scratch?

I noticed somewhere in this forum the settings are stored in the Windows registry (I will be happy if I don't need touch the registry!)

Thanks in advance,
Marco

I think you'll have to export/import the registry settings.

They are in your Cumulus folder (usually program files\cumulus), look for a series of file called CumulusToolbox????.txt

Ah, yes indeed... the rules are there. But the settings are in the registry.

I don't know what's happened to David. I thought he must have gone on holiday, but it's quite a long holiday if that's the case.
