How do I make a backup of my settings, switching schedules and measurement data?

Go to Settings – Back up to back up your usage measurements, switching schedules and
settings. Besides for safety issues, making a backup can be useful if you want to install
Source on another computer.

Making a backup

  • Start the Back Up Wizard by clicking ‘Settings’ and then ‘Back up’.
  • Choose ‘Back up’
  • Select a location for your back-up file.
  • If you want, you can enter a different file name.
  • Click ‘Save’.
The progress is shown in the Back Up Wizard’s brown bar. When the backup is finished,
you will be notified.

Restoring a backup

  • Start the Back Up Wizard by clicking ‘Settings’ and then ‘Back up’.
  • Choose ‘Restore backup’.
  • Find the location of your back-up file, select it.
  • Click ‘Open’.
  • When the back up data has been added to Source, you will be notified.

Tip: never use more than one Source installation to make changes to switching schedules, groups and settings.
