Backup and Restore of MARC Notepad Settings

1. C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\WebClarity Software Inc\MARC Notepad
   This folder contains MARC Notepad settings that are specific to this physical computer and common to all users of the computer. See the notes under Restoring MARC Notepad settings for important details on these settings.


2. C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Application Data\WebClarity Software Inc\MARC Notepad
   This folder contains all of the personal settings for the currently logged-in MARC Notepad user. See the notes under Restoring MARC Notepad settings for important details on these settings.
   Note: USERNAME is the username you specify when logging in to Windows. If you do not normally login when Windows starts USERNAME could be Default User


3. Make a copy of these folders along with a copy of the MARC Notepad application installer (e.g. MN210.exe) on a CD or a backed up network drive for safe keeping.

Re-installing MARC Notepad

1. To restore your previous MARC Notepad environment a backup of your MARC Notepad Settings will be required. If your old hardware is not operational, this step is not possible and a factory default installation on your new computer will be the only option. Regular backups of your Application Data folders are invaluable for preserving any custom settings. Note: If you have co-workers who have a similar MARC Notepad environment, you can backup their MARC Notepad Settings and use them as a starting point.


2. If re-installing MARC Notepad on a new computer, please contact WebClarity Technical Support: support@webclarity.info.
   Please provide the following information:
   
   • MARC Notepad Serial Number
   • Confirmation that MARC Notepad has been uninstalled from the old hardware
   • Reason for re-installation (new computer, moving to different workstation, etc.)
   This step is very important as a MARC Notepad license will not activate on a different computer without intervention from WebClarity Technical Support.


3. Install MARC Notepad using the backup copy of the installer (e.g. MN21X.exe). If you have a current Maintenance contract for your license, you can obtain assistance from WebClarity Technical Support, as well as download a copy of the installer. Note: We can only provide installers for current Maintenance holders, otherwise you must have a copy of the installer saved on CD or a network drive in order to re-install MARC Notepad.


4. Restore previous settings (optional)
   • Ensure you are logged in to Windows with your usual username
   • Copy all of the files from the backup you prepared earlier to their respective locations on the new computer:
     C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\WebClarity Software Inc\MARC Notepad
     C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Application Data\WebClarity Software Inc\MARC Notepad


5. Launch MARC Notepad and you will be prompted to re-activate your software.
