Moving The Bat to a new harddisk?, which direcotry?
 
#1
0  
My Bat has as home directory : F:\Bat\MAIL\account name
Directory is <default>
Fair enough. But....
The icon on my desktop links to E:\programs\thebat\thebat.exe

I want to move everything to a new harddisk. Am I correct to assume I move everything to that new harddisk?
I can already see one possible headache: the drive letters.
Suppose I create a drive 'Z', with the folder 'thebat' where the program files are located, and a folder 'Bat' where I place all the user data?

Thanks for any help,

Jos

Place your mail directory anywhere you like.
Next install TB on your new system.
When starting TB for the first time you point it to the new location of your mail directory.
Use the same version on your new system as you did on your old system
If you want to upgrade you'd better do that on top of a running config

Hi Roelof,

Thanks a bunch! Can I copy the folder 'thebat' or do I have to install a fresh version?

That might be difficult: I got version4.0.24 professional. I don't see that in the archive.

Hi Roelof,

If I can't trust you - who can I trust?  ;)
Ik stap op m'n fiets vanuit Bangkok, kom direct naar Nederland om je een pak voor je broek te geven als ik je niet kan vertrouwen! (=I get on my bicycle in Bangkok, ride to Holland and spank you if I can't trust you!)

I downloaded the files. I also tested if I can move the directory without harm, I can.

Thanks for the help!

You downloaded them? Good, that means I can delete them.
En ik reken er op dat dat pak slaag niet nodig is. ;-)
