Export Registry Data

If you want to configure several workstations, you can save time by exporting the Optim™ Directory registry data to a file and saving the file to a directory that is easily accessible. During the process of configuring the first workstation, you are prompted to export registry data, or you can select Export Registry Data from the File menu on the Configuration main window.

The Export Optim Directory Registry Data dialog is used to specify an output file name and select the registry entries and other information you want to export.
