What is the preferred way of transferring all my configuration settings, etc. to a new computer? I have Windows 8.1 on an SSD and all my data from the old computer (including the Log4OM database) on a separate HDD, which I will move over to the new computer. Presumably under Settings1 I point the backup folder to this database?
Thanks

Re: Migrating to new computer
1. Install the software on the new computer
2. Copy the two latest config files from the old backup folder into the c:\............\roaming\LogOM folder on the new computer
3. Open Log4om on the new computer
4. Go to File/open database and select the SQLite logbook database file from the HDD - Click open
All should now work as before
Why not keep your logbook database in Dropbox that way it's accessable from all of your computers and much more secure, instructions are in the user guide
