I strongly customized EDP to suit my needs, so I'd like to save my configuration in case I'll need to reinstall.
Of course, I'm aware of the possibility of importing/exporting the options.
What I miss is the possibility of saving/restoring the appearance of EDP.
The windows layout is not a big problem: a few clicks and it's ready.
The story is different with the toolbar(s).
Did I miss the way to save/restore the toolbars?
A problem of import/export :-)

This can be done via the Registry: use regedt.exe to export the following key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\PrestoSoft\ExamDiff Pro. The key contains all ExamDiff Pro options, including its visual elements and sessions with their options.

Good. But restoring the whole key doesn't create problem if the program installation path is different?The key contains all ExamDiff Pro options, including its visual elements and sessions with their options.
I'm thinking about things like "Program files" and "Program files (x86)".
I'd like to just restore the toolbar(s), leaving all the other data alone.
Re: A problem of import/export :-)
It will create a problem but a manageable one. There are only few indirect references to the installation path or any kind of path in the settings. They include two external editors (text/binary), HTML template, and plug-ins. You can open the .reg file in a text editor and see these paths by searching for "c:\" (or "d:\" etc., depending on your installation path on the source computer). You can then, if necessary, edit the paths.
Restoring only the toolbars is not easily done as there multiple sub-keys that contain their data.

Ok. A bit of manual editing.
Luckily I don't change toolbars layout too often.
Thanks
