Title: Pack & Go and Color Coded Folder Names (Properties) Where are they stored?
Post by: kiwilink on January 18, 2025, 07:29:20 PM
I ran Pack and Go to move database from the Desktop to the Laptop.  I then copied from my Desktop the folders (Preset, config,IMATCH6 from AppData/Roaming/photools). 

After P&G restore and copying the above folders I opened IMATCH and my folder and category colors that I had created on the Desktop (via properties) were missing from the Laptop.

Are these transferable to the Laptop?

Thanks!

The colors are stored in the database. Make sure you have copied the right database in the right place, and open the right database on your other computer.

Sorry .... I had no idea that when I copied all of the folders I ended up with another database of the same name.

You were right.  It's all there.

Thank you
