I am in the process of recovering a failed HD.  All the data is safe,
the issue is getting the operating environment back together.

I had four profiles set up for WiFiState on the old boot drive.  I have
all of the files recovered.  But, I need to move the profiles to the
new environment.  Yes, I could possibly manually reset the profiles,
but I'd like to just move the old ones; for two reasons.
1) Save time.
2) Create a backup.

#2 is not one I would have thought about before, but it makes sense in
case of future accidental or screw ups where I just want to get back to
a known point.  A couple of the profiles I only used once or twice a
year.  So, I've forgotten what the settings were.

Where/how can I get hold of the profiles and make them available on my
new system?

TIA,
Carl

 

Use any Ini Editor, like the free initor from hobbes, and export the application "WifiState" from the "User INI" or OS2.ini. On the new system, import it.

If you are not familiar with that, try my  IMPINI command line utility from my homepage (see sig), backup all WifiState profiles with:

IMPINI USER export.ini /A:"WifiState"

and restore it on the same or new system with

IMPINI export.ini USER

Due to the very unfortunate way of how the old WifiState app saves the date, it would be complicated to store only one profile this way. Fortunately this is not required in this case.


hope that helps.

bye, Christian
