How to move Changevuew to a new computer?

Post by Eurisko »

I'm moving to a new computer for my primary work, and I would like to move my entire Changevue setup to the new system, repositories and all. The machine name also will be different.

Any FAQ's on how to do this?

Are the repositories local or on remote drives?

Install ChangeVue on your new computer.
On your old computer open up Regedit and navigate to
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SAPIEN Technologies, Inc.\ChangeVue\2012\Directories\Repositories

This assumes you have ChangeVue 2012. The entries under this key tell you exactly where your repositories are.
Copy these folders to your new computer to the same location.

Export this key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SAPIEN Technologies, Inc.\ChangeVue\2012
and apply the resulting reg file on your new machine.

If you start up ChangeVue on your new machine everything should be as it was on your old machine.
