Move to a new computer

[rtpsigns]

Hello All,
I'm replacing my computer. Is there any way I could copy/export the parameters files/settings (Control Software) from the old computer to the new computer so that I don't have to go thru the setting again ? Also, Is there the same in Part Wizard to copy the bits info/database ?

Thanks,
Marwan

Hi Marwan!

Good thinking; preventive approach.

You need the following files to restore your current controller PC settings.

shopbot.ini - C:\Program Files\ShopBot\ShopBot 3\

problem.Log (optional) - C:\Program Files\ShopBot\ShopBot 3\

sbsys.log - C:\Program Files\ShopBot\ShopBot 3\Bin\

All that folder tree - C:\SbParts\

And any other files that you believe you may need later. In fact, it could be a good time to make a system backup with Windows utility and you'll be able to recover those files later if you need them.

Your PartWizard tool database is named 'tool_database.tdb' and it should be in the '\Exec\' folder of PartWizard program files folder... I believe it's in the Shopbot folder (C:\Program Files\ShopBot). I don't use PartWizard anymore but a search with 'tool_database.tdb' should found it quick.

Hope that help.

Paco and All,
All I could say THANK YOU, This is a great company and great support. I ask my question and go to bed, I checked when I wake-up and the great answer I want it is there.
Thanks Paco, you would not beleive the time you saved me. I'm sure my next upgrade router will be from Shopbot also.

Thanks,
