Export single session configuration

pedja's profile image pedja posted 4 years ago in General Permalink

I need to copy session configuration to other PC.

In HeidiSQL I found option to export whole configuration which includes sessions. I do not want that as HeidiSQL on other PC is already configured and I do not want to destroy it. All I need is to copy this specific session configuration.

Is that possible?

Yes, you can do that via Registry editor:

  • start regedit.exe
  • navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HeidiSQL\Servers\MySession, where "MySession" is the one you want to export
  • rightclick that key, and click "Export"
  • you get to store a .reg file
  • that file can be merged on the other Windows pc, using right click on that .reg file in the file manager:

I guess that would do for now.

Can I post feature request for more user friendly option, like right click on session and then click export... :)

Not worth the effort. Would be a "wontfix" issue, as there are many more important issues to fix.
