Backup/Restore Capture One user settings in ~/Library
In another topic area of the forums there was chatter about backing up and restoring our user settings and scripts stored in ~/Library/ to make it easier to migrate from one system to another. I wrote an AppleScript script that backs up and restores
- ~/Library/Application Support/Capture One
- ~/Library/Scripts/Capture One Script
When you first run the downloaded AppleScript script it adds two scripts to your Capture One Scripts menu. The scripts back up and restore the transportable contents of the folders above.
System-specific non-transportable parts of these folders are skipped.
When you run these scripts from the Capture One Scripts menu they will prompt you for the folder to store the backup, or the folder that contains the backup you want to restore.
The backup file is always called CaptureOneSettings.zip but you could change that filename in the script if you choose.
You can read more details and get the code from my GitHub page.
