Moving MC Installation to a new machine
« on: July 19, 2008, 07:26:48 pm »
Just curious if there was a way to completely move an install.  Not just the library backup / restore , but all the settings for paths, file types, and everything else in the options tree.

I have to do this more and more lately with system upgrades and would like to streamline this process.

Thanks,

Please try the following:
1) Install MC on the new machine
2) copy the installation folder, usually "C:\Program files\J River\Media Center 12" into the same folder on the new machine
3) Start regedit, go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\JRiver, then Menu File > Export it into a file and merge it into the new machine
4) Do the same with HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\JRiver

This should transfer all options. Make sure your library files are copied into the same location on your new machine as well...
