 Configuration Files

The settings for the Storage Server and the Viewer are saved in the following folders on the computer where the

program is installed. You must back up all of these folders to completely back up the configuration files.

<System drive>:\ProgramData\Canon\WebView\NVR30\

<System drive>:\Users\<User name>\AppData\Local\Canon\WebView\NVR30\

Note

• The configuration file names are not displayed unless [Show hidden files and folders] is selected in the [View] tab of Windows

Explorer [Folder Options].

• You cannot use the OS’ shadow backup feature with this software.

• You can also use [Backup/Restore Configuration] in the [Tools] menu (P. 59) if you simply want to back up or restore settings

data.

Notes on Backup

• You do not need to stop recording to back up recorded data that is complete. However, the frame rate may

change because of increased disk I/O load and/or CPU load.

• If you want to restore a backed-up recording file, the computer you restore the backup to must have the same IP

address and drive configuration as the original Storage Server. For example, if the original Storage Server includes

a system drive and a recorded data drive, the Storage Server you restore the backup to must also have a system

drive and a recorded data drive. Determine the hard disk capacity based on the volume of data to be restored.
