How to save a Hotfolder Setting

How to save a Hotfolder Setting

Problem/Question
After a complete hotfolder configuration, this should be saved as a backup.

"How can a hotfolder setting be backed up?"


Solution/Work-Around

To save hotfolder settings, proceed as follows:

  1. Call up the HotFolder tool from the Ergosoft ControlCenter
  2. Select "Export Hotfolder as XML" * in the HotFolder menu under "HotFolder".
  3. Save the file to a central location

* Notes:

If you use several hotfolders, you can also back them up directly using the "Export all hotfolders as XML" command.

In the case of a new installation, for example, you can add the backup to the HotFolder Tool again via "Import new via XML". It is important that the installation was previously carried out via a backup!
