Copying Filters

Postby MarvinGardens » Tue Dec 05, 2023 4:34 pm

I just moved Newsbin to a new computer. I installed Newsbin, moved the Newsbindata folder, then Newsbin,ini, Everything seems OK except the filers are missing. Did I forget something?

Filters.db3 is in the data folder. You can exit Newsbin and try to copy it again.

In the options, I might "Open Data Folder" to confirm Newsbin is using the right data folder.

Weird, I copied the entire Newsbindata folder. Somehow filters.db3 missed the bus. I copied it and now all is well.

Thanks
