RE: Migrate TOAD settings

Hey Leo,

Follow these steps to pull in your Toad 10.6 files:


-          Go into your user files folder on your new machine.



For Windows XP and earlier, this should be:  c:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Application Data\Quest Software\Toad for Oracle\<version>\User Files

For Windows Vista and later, this should be: c:\users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Quest Software\Toad for Oracle\<version>\User Files



You can also find this folder by going to the "General" page of your Toad Options window and click the "Open Folder" button under the "Application data directory".



-          Make sure Toad is closed down and rename your Toad.ini to Toad.bak

Separately:


-          Copy your "10.6" folder from your old machine to your new machine, or share that folder with the new machine.  It should be located in the same location as the ones listed above.

Finally:


-          Start Toad 11.0.  It will prompt you to migrate your user settings with the following window:

-
[cid:[email protected]]

Note: (your user name will be different than the above)

Click on the ellipses button to select the "10.6" folder either from the copy you just made or from your old machine.  Toad will prompt you to restart and it should import your old settings.

Let me know if  you run into any problems.

-John

Subject: [toad] Migrate TOAD settings


I need to migrate the settings of TOAD 10.6 to 11.0

They are running on separate PCs.

I did share the program files from the old PC to the new one, and pointed there when I was prom[ted, but it did not seem to do it, neither did it take the connections.

Any suggestions?
