How to import all configurations and definitions from version 8 to version 9?

Hi,
How to import all configurations and definitions from version 8 to version 9?

If you install version 9 of TextPad on the same PC as version 8, it will uninstall version 8 and copy all its configuration files. If you need to import them from another PC, they are stored in this folder:

%APPDATA%\Helios\TextPad\8

Copy its contents to:

%APPDATA%\Helios\TextPad\9

I installed version 9 of TextPad on the same PC as version 8.
Why did I get a black window background having a white background in version 8?

[bbadmin]

I don't know why but you can change it using View » Appearance » Default.

It works now.
Thank you!

Hi,

I did a restart of my PC after it was a couple of month up, and all my Textpad settings were lost.
Working with Textpad version 9.5.2.
How to restore my settings?

TextPad saves its settings (apart from the user interface) in this file:

Code: Select all

%APPDATA%\Helios\TextPad\9\ConfigState.xml

If it doesn't exist, TextPad creates it with its default settings.

I can't help with the reason it may have been deleted from your PC.

Did you close TextPad before to ensure everything will be saved? Or did you assume Windows would handle that for you?
