Importing two instances and their settings

[burgundy]

What are the steps to import settings from two instances of Everything 1.4?
I took the following steps but could not import bookmarks or filters. Please advise.

---------------

For one instance of v1.5, I created a shortcut using the -INSTANCE parameter (just as before).

I successfully imported the INI file from v1.4 for that instance.

However I could not import the bookmarks CSV for that instance.
Nor could I import the filters CSV for that instance.

(I don't know about importing, per se...)

Using an instance adds (dash &) an "instance name" to the setting file names.
So if you called your instance

-instance eve15

copy your .csv (or whatever) over & append

-eve15

to their name part.

So

Search History.csv

becomes

Search History-eve15.csv

...
Do that for any associated files you need.

And you would do that while Everything is closed.

To import filters:

• In Everything, from the Search menu, click Organize Filters....
• Click Import....
• Select your Filters.csv file and click Open.
• Click OK.

Repeat for each instance of Everything 1.4.
You filters should be stored in %APPDATA%\Everything\Filters-<instance name>.csv

To import bookmarks:

• In Everything, from the Bookmarks menu, click Organize Bookmarks....
• Click Import....
• Select your bookmarks.csv file and click Open.
• Click OK.

Repeat for each instance of Everything 1.4.
You filters should be stored in %APPDATA%\Everything\Bookmarks-<instance name>.csv
