Backing up Zeus preferences?

Post by robert37 »

How do I back up my default preferences in Zoot, i.e., my preferences for compiler options, keyword options, color options, etc.?

I mean, which files should I copy to preserve this information in case of a system crash? Then, can I restore the information by simply copying the files back into the Zeus file folders?

Thank you.

I meant Zeus, not Zoot. Sorry.

You just need to backup the zConfig folder and the zScript folder if you made any script changes.

Thank you. And then, to restore the folders, can I then just copy my backup
ZConfig and ZScript folders into my working Zeus folder? Or is there some special way of importing these folders?

A file copy is all that is needed. Just make sure Zeus is not running at the time ;)

Here is the recommended upgrade procedure outlined in a bit more details: http://www.zeusedit.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=207
