Interesting, does your company manage settings on your computer as well?

Thanks! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/desktop-icon-profile-move/?ID=be9b48dd-07b0-47e3-a8f2-1dc74e07a60f#17 Tue, 13 Apr 2021 10:57:03 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/desktop-icon-profile-move/?ID=be9b48dd-07b0-47e3-a8f2-1dc74e07a60f#17 DisplayFusion This issue was found several months ago. I no longer have access to the original computer. After 60 days my company reimages them and as needed reassigns them. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/desktop-icon-profile-move/?ID=be9b48dd-07b0-47e3-a8f2-1dc74e07a60f#16 Mon, 12 Apr 2021 18:54:07 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/desktop-icon-profile-move/?ID=be9b48dd-07b0-47e3-a8f2-1dc74e07a60f#16 DisplayFusion Hello,

Could you try to create some custom settings (a window position profile, desktop icon profile, a trigger, etc.) on the computer that is having troubles loading the backup, export those settings through DisplayFusion, and try to import them on your original computer?

Let me know what does/doesn't get loaded.

Thanks! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/desktop-icon-profile-move/?ID=be9b48dd-07b0-47e3-a8f2-1dc74e07a60f#15 Mon, 12 Apr 2021 10:13:47 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/desktop-icon-profile-move/?ID=be9b48dd-07b0-47e3-a8f2-1dc74e07a60f#15 DisplayFusion That is correct, everything else to my knowlege is being loaded correctly. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/desktop-icon-profile-move/?ID=be9b48dd-07b0-47e3-a8f2-1dc74e07a60f#14 Fri, 09 Apr 2021 14:39:12 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/desktop-icon-profile-move/?ID=be9b48dd-07b0-47e3-a8f2-1dc74e07a60f#14 DisplayFusion Hello,

Thanks for sending that over. Is it still the Icon Profiles that aren't getting loaded consistently? Everything else loads fine?

Interesting, I've added this on to our list to look into, so if we have any further information on it, we'll be sure to let you know.

Thanks! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/desktop-icon-profile-move/?ID=be9b48dd-07b0-47e3-a8f2-1dc74e07a60f#10 Tue, 19 Jan 2021 12:14:16 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/desktop-icon-profile-move/?ID=be9b48dd-07b0-47e3-a8f2-1dc74e07a60f#10 DisplayFusion Yes, it worked when I loaded it directly as a registry entry (double click on the "reg" file). So the issue must be when I try and load this from the Settings GUI. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/desktop-icon-profile-move/?ID=be9b48dd-07b0-47e3-a8f2-1dc74e07a60f#9 Fri, 15 Jan 2021 16:39:24 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/desktop-icon-profile-move/?ID=be9b48dd-07b0-47e3-a8f2-1dc74e07a60f#9 DisplayFusion Hello,

If you exit Display Fusion, double click the backup file, choose "Yes" to import, and then launch Display Fusion, does it work?

Are you trying to restore the backup to a different computer, or a different user profile on the same computer?

Thanks! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/desktop-icon-profile-move/?ID=be9b48dd-07b0-47e3-a8f2-1dc74e07a60f#5 Tue, 12 Jan 2021 19:36:55 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/desktop-icon-profile-move/?ID=be9b48dd-07b0-47e3-a8f2-1dc74e07a60f#5 DisplayFusion Yes I did multiple times. I even upgraded to the latest version. Still get the same results. It will allow me to save off new profiles, so I know it can access the registry but will not allow me to restore them. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/desktop-icon-profile-move/?ID=be9b48dd-07b0-47e3-a8f2-1dc74e07a60f#4 Tue, 12 Jan 2021 18:37:16 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/desktop-icon-profile-move/?ID=be9b48dd-07b0-47e3-a8f2-1dc74e07a60f#4 DisplayFusion Hello,

Thanks for sending that over, it looks like it's working for me, I can see 2 desktop icon profiles listed. Are you restarting Display Fusion after restoring the backup?

The desktop icons should be contained in the backup file. Could you send it over so we could take a look at it?

Thanks! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/desktop-icon-profile-move/?ID=be9b48dd-07b0-47e3-a8f2-1dc74e07a60f Wed, 06 Jan 2021 13:06:20 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/desktop-icon-profile-move/?ID=be9b48dd-07b0-47e3-a8f2-1dc74e07a60f DisplayFusion I have searched and searched the discussion, and nowhere have I found how to move my Desktop Icon profiles to a new PC. I have already done the "Restore Settings" and I assume since they didn't show the Desktop Icon Profiles are not part of this restore (why not?). So is this a registry entry item that I can move? Or are these profiles burried somewhere in the directory structure? ]]>
