upgrade to Total Commander 10.0

Post by *bdesatnik1 »

Hello,

I am currently using Total Commander 9.21a and will be upgrading to 10.0 soon. I have a number of saved directories in the directory hotlist and want to make sure these are saved when the new version is installed. Can you tell me where I can find the file on my c: drive so that I can backup this file? I just added a directory to the hotlist today and looked in the directory where Total Commander is installed and don't see any files that have been recently updated. I also searched my hard drive and don't find any recently modified files.

Thank you.

Bob

Hi and welcome Bob.

All settings are stored in one file called wincmd.ini (well, and wcx_ftp.ini)

See menu Help and there "About TC..." for the location of your ini fileS

If you want to get your main ini file just see from command line %commander_ini% usually it in in program folder %commander_path% or in user folder usually %APPDATA%\GHISLER\wincmd.ini you also have next to this file some plugin ini files or xml files and ini redirections and wcx_ftp.ini...
You should just backup this folder before update !

I never had any issues upgrading Total Commander in same place ! keeping wincmd.ini, key, ..... from one version to another is for me the way to keep everything as it was !
