omiK Posted December 17, 2022 Share Posted December 17, 2022 (edited) Something I miss when I need to do a clean install. Being able to retrieve all my preferences in the same way as store assets. Especially the custom print profiles export presets since I can't export them to keep them safe. Thanks in advance for reading this post 🙂 Edited December 17, 2022 by omiK fii and loukash 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you save a custom print profile you choose its name and it shows you where it saves it Just back up that folder so you can restore it when required Quote To save time I am currently using an automated AI to reply to some posts on this forum.

Thanks for your response. Can't see where this option is. Maybe you are talking about project templates? Those I know where to find them. I'm talking about export options (presets) but as I said, maybe I'm not looking in the right place. I mean there is no option to choose folder and is not showing the path when used.

I hope in future versions will not be necessary to search for this type of files to have a backup. All preferences should be exportable or as I said in the op, everything saved in your affinity user.
