Moving the SDL BaccS installation to a new computer

To install SDL BaccS on another computer and move data from previous one, you have to do the following:

Procedure

  1. Run the installation file and install BaccS.
    • If BaccS was installed outside of the Program files folder, copy the following files from previous computer to the same locations on a new computer:
      • InstallationFolder\database\baccsdb.sdf
      • InstallationFolder\settings.bin
    • If BaccS was installed inside the Program files folder, copy the following files from previous computer to the same locations on a new computer (considering that you install BaccS into the Program files folder again, otherwise copy these files to a place mentioned in point 2a):
      • Documents\BaccS\baccsdb.sdf
      • Documents\BaccS\settings.bin
  3. If you use the network version, there is no need to copy the baccsdb.sdf file. Only settings.bin file is needed, as it contains information about network location of your database.
