Changing Where Presets Are Stored
Change Folder
You don't need to store all of your presets in the default folder(s). You can create
custom folders of presets for different projects, archive presets, etc. To change
the folder that Nectar looks to for presets, click the Change Folder button and
browse to the folder that contains the presets you want to use.
Backing up Presets
Backing up presets is as simple as copying files. Just browse to the location of
your preset files. The XML files in this folder are your presets with one XML file
for each preset. You can reference the preset files by their file names because
the name you give the preset in Nectar becomes the name of the XML file.

Transferring Presets
Similar to Nectar's Styles, Presets are stored as '.XML' files inside of your Preset
directory. These '.XML' files will be named and categorized as they appear
inside of your Nectar Preset window.
