Hey, that worked great. Thanks.

Looking at the saved profiles .dxp, seems to me they look a whole lot like the registry contents I saw yesterday, but maybe not. This worked so well, no need to investigate any further.

Thanks - I'll take it out for a test drive.

Noticed a nice big registry section for Dexpot. Wondering if there's much to be gained from exporting that, then reimporting it after a re-install?

Go to "Settings > General > Profiles" and save a new profile. Profiles are not removed when uninstalling Dexpot. If you still want to have a backup: [FAQ] Where are the Profiles stored?

Profiles do store plugin settings, but loading a profile does not load or unload any plugins, you'll have to do that manually. Tray icon arrangement can't be saved as it's a Windows setting.

Or in this case, reinstall to prior.

I'd wrote a script a while back to tar up my profile when I was happy with it, because sometimes Dexpot would get confused, and a one click restore & restart and Dexpot was back to how I liked it.

I'd thought it would hold through an uninstall/reinstall. Not.

So, not that I'm back to being happy, how would one, if it exists save off the entire dexpot settings, which I assume includes plugins, num desktops, tray arranging, the whole nine yards and have it able to be dropped into place on a reinstall?
