Backing up my joystick profile?

[DD_Bucky]

Hi Guys,

I can't seem to find a thread on this.

I want to re-install my X52 hoping that will fix some issues I'm having with it.I need info on how to backup my profile.

Your profiles reside in C:\Program Files\Saitek\Software

It will be a .dat file for the older profiler or a .pro (I think) on the latest software.

So just find it, copy it somewhere and put it back in when you reinstall.

Thanks Shadow,

My profile is now copied.Hopefully a re-install will fix the issues I'm been having.If not I have my old Saitek Evo for backup.

Ok,

OK,

So you know,I've done a system restore to a point before my re-install.

So at least now everything is ok.I'll just have to put up with my minor glitches for now.

~S~ Bucky,

I'm sure that you have checked everything but did you rename the profile file i.e. if it was Bucky profile. xml and you renamed it bucky profile. bac; or

Did you replace your file at the correct location i.e. ....NaturalPoint\TrackIR4\Profiles\Bucky profile.xml ?

Bucky, If your using the newer drivers, the profiles are kept in a file in your "shared documents" folder. They are now called a .pro file. If you are upgrading from the older version (.dat) to the newer version (.pro) they are not compatible and you will have to configure it manually.
