There are 3 locations where settings can be stored.
\n-If you are missing settings, you can cycle through these 3 locations looking for your settings.
\n-If you just need to copy your current settings over to the new pc, you can do that also
\n…
\nFirst you need to try and locate the settings.
\nRun OL Monitor and click Options-Options from the drop-down menu.
\nNO settings found<\/strong>: The settings appear blank like this, with a couple of asterisks in the login fields:
\n\"\"
\nSettings FOUND<\/strong>:\u00a0 Access code and login are not asterisks (password will always be asterisks):
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

If you found your settings you can skip the next step:<\/p>\n

Cycling through the other locations<\/strong>:
\nStart Ol Monitor.
\nClick on options, and look at the ‘Reload with…’ options:
\n\"\" <— The checkmark indicates which location it was using.
\nWherever the checkmark is, select one of the other locations.\u00a0 Ol Monitor will close and you have to restart it.
\nLook again for your options, if not found, try the last location.<\/p>\n

If you found your settings:
\nYou can export them to a file and restore them to the new pc.
\nHere are instructions on exporting the settings to a reg \/ ini file:
\nhttp:\/\/www.olmonitor.com\/ManualM\/window_3_6.htm<\/a><\/p>\n

You can then import the reg file to the new pc.<\/p>\n

There are extended instuctions on working with the registry manually here:
\nhttp:\/\/www.olmonitor.com\/settings.html<\/a>
\nRecommended if you have worked with the registry editor before.<\/p>\n

I am working on another program whose purpose is to make managing Ol Monitor settings easier.\u00a0 It is almost done, if you would like to try it I can provide you with a link to download it, but at this point it is a little rough around the edges.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
