Where are the user settings saved?
Where are these user settings stored?
Oh well, that just means I have to dig around in gmail to find my client's information again. Could be worse.
Thanks
Thanks.
Most of it, yes. What is currently stored and restored from elsewhere:
- query tab settings:
C:\Users\[userid]\AppData\Roaming\HeidiSQL\tabs.ini
- automatically stored query tab contents:
C:\Users\[userid]\AppData\Roaming\HeidiSQL\Backups\
- session logfiles:
C:\Users\[userid]\AppData\Roaming\HeidiSQL\Sessionlogs\
- snippet files:
C:\Users\[userid]\Documents\HeidiSQL\Snippets\
Wohoo.. I did it! 😃
Windows stores ntuser.dat in the Windows.old\Users\Username folder. I managed to extract HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HeidiSQL\Servers\ using MiTeC Windows Registry Recovery. Good to have a solution to fall back to.
It does not affect my opinion in stop using the Windows registry for the server profiles. There are times when it's a benefit being the odd man sticking out. And there are times when it's just better to blend in with the others. Honouring the %appdata% folder as one solid place for all userdata, instead of having storage spread around would be convenient I think, for most. 😉😁
