Moving to a new PC

In the single-user version it is possible to move Xpert-Timer from one computer to another without problems.

Here the procedure described in detail in single user mode.

For single users:

1.Start Xpert-Timer on your old system and make a note of the database path. This can be found in the Project Manager under "Help" -> "About Xpert-Timer" -> "System Info"..

2.Navigate to the path.

3.Close the Xpert-Timer.

4.Now copy the xt.mdb (database file) or xt.sqlite (database file) to a USB stick or to a network drive that you can access from the new computer.

5.Now install the latest version of the Xpert-Timer on your new system. Install the 30-day trial.

6.Start the Xpert-Timer and look again in the menu item "Help" -> "About Xpert-Timer" the path to the database.

7.Navigate to the path.

8.Close the "new" Xpert-Timer.

9.Copy and replace the "new" xt.mdb or xt.sqlite with the one from your old computer.

10. Start the "new" Xpert-Timer. All data should now be visible on the new system.

If you get a database error that it can not read the database format, it may be because you copied the xt.mdb from the old computer while the Xpert-Timer was still running on the old system. Make sure you close the Xpert-Timer before copying.
