General ⇒ How to automatically import TeXnicCenter configuration

[franck22]

Hello,

I'd like to automatically import on several computers the same configuration saved by an export command in TeXnicCenter (on a master computer).
There is a way to import the file by using the command line ?
What are the different other solutions ?

AFAIK, it can't be done this way.

TC stores profiles in registry under:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\ToolsCenter\TeXnicCenter\Profiles

Export that key (with reg.exe or regedit.exe) to a .reg file on your master computer and then merge it into registry on all the other PCs.

Cheers,

Thanks for your advice, but it was the first thing I tried : there are problems with somme keys, in each profiles, which contain binary characters (represented by a square in regedit -DDEcmd, Processcmd) and I was unabled to import after an export (I need to launch the profile helper after import in the registry). It is the reason why I was looking an other way to realise this.
I've just tried with regedit : I can make a test with reg.exe.

Try with reg save/load. This will dump/load binary registry (sub)hives. Maybe it will work better.

And file a bug report with TC. It should be possible to export/import its registry keys with standard tools.
