Tip
Actually, the path may not begin with 'C:\Users', as this is language-dependent. On a
French system, for example, it would be 'C:\Utilisateurs'.
Type %userprofile% in a Windows File Explorer and press Enter to open the actual
current user's home directory.
Backup your database
If you want to be completely thorough and be able to exactly replicate your existing system, you
should also backup your existing Connect database.
If the default MySQLdatabase is being used as the Connect back-end database, we would
recommend the MySQLDump tool be used for this. See for details on this utility
program:mysqldump (https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/mysqldump.html).
Preferences
The Preferences dialog is used to modify the general software preferences. Changes made in
this dialog affect the software globally, not individual templates and data mapping
configurations.
The Preferences dialog is separated into individual tabs, where each tab controls certain
aspects of the software.
