Backup all Cobian settings

Yes, a backup of a backup :lol

Seriously, during the life of Cobian, I have needed to do complete reinstalls of the OS (Win64), plus upgrading my PC, etc. I desperately need to know how to backup my Cobian Reflector (Backup) settings, incl such things as all the settings for "Tasks", etc, all of which have become more extensive year by year. Hopefully this Cobian settings can be applied when Cobian is reinstalled.

Home user, backing up my PC and my wife's PC, all to local storage. My backups are very large for a home user. As my age has progressed I have digitised all my old photos, current digital photos slides, all my documents, correspondence, videos, emails, medical records (yes very important as we oldies get increasing chronic issues) etc, etc. Currently my backup is several TBs

If I knew the software better, I should have been able to sort this myself, but alas I am old, declining, frail, and need to spend 18hrs-plus each day in bed. Getting old is a bastard (in Aussie blunt language).

Please help me,
Take care,

my PC: Win11 Pro 64 bit, 32 GB RAM, Cobian reflector 1.1.5. nVidia 4060Ti.

Hello

Just copy the underfolders Settings, Lists and Db from the installation folder (often C:\Program Files\Cobian Reflector ) to a safe place.

Take care
