Maintain config and users from old installation?

Sep 29 04 11:53 pm

I'm licensed for a much older version of Wingate. Eventually I needed more functionality so I downloaded 5.5 trial, installed it fresh, configured it, used it, like it and want to purchase 6.0. I did allot of configuring and user setups in the 5.5 trial and don't want to do it again when I purchase and install 6.0. I also want to install 6.0 to a different drive and path. Is there a config or ini file I can copy/overwrite after I install 6 but before I uninstall 5.5?

A 6.0 install automatically saves your WinGate registry settings.

You can also in GateKeeper - Options - Advanced - save the registry.

Now since it's registry settings if you install 6.0 on the same computer you can't really have 2 seperate installations.

6.0 will upgrade all your current settings.

The installation to a different drive path may be tricky.

Let us know how it goes.
