3.4.6 Back Up the PCB Project
Create a backup copy of your project and configuration files. The backup
procedure saves your data for reuse on another machine or allows you to restore
your data in the event of a system failure.
To save your project and configuration files:
1 In the ProSoft Configuration Builder, open the File menu, and then choose
S AVE A S .
2 Name the project file, and click S AVE . The recommended location for this file
is your "My Documents" or "Desktop" folder.
A complete backup consists of the Project and Master Configuration files, plus
the GSD files. PCB does this complete backup for you automatically. The default
location for these backup files is C:\PCBExportFiles. All the files associated with
your PCB configuration will be stored in a folder with the same name as the
name you used to save your PCB configuration (.ppf) file. When you exit PCB,
you will be prompted to overwrite your Export folder files.
You should normally click the Y ES button every time you see this dialog box to
have the backup files updated to match your latest configuration settings. Having
all the files for your PCB configuration stored in one folder makes it easier to
transfer the application from one system to the other or to send your files to
ProSoft Technical Support when you need assistance.
