Where are my file settings stored?

I've read through the documentation and I can't find this. I shoot with a Nikon D2X

If I use Nikon capture the original NEF is saved again, with the settings.

If I use Adobe Camera RAW, my settings are either in a sidecar XML file or in the cache of the program.

If I back up my files to disk to send to someone or I have to wipe my hard disk, I don't want to lose my RAW settings for each file.

How does Capture One Pro save settings, and where are they?

    fundy,

    Be sure to check your Preference settings for this.
    File > Preferences > Save Options tab
    Save on Exit and Save when changing Collection are good settings to have. The other choices can affect performance.

    You can also use the Archive tool to save all settings. The data is within the Work files. These are the Thumbnails and tagged .C1w

    The above link is to a Forum post where we discuss this in detail. It should help you out.

    The Thumbnail / Work files are tagged .C1w and are established and saved along with the Preview files [ .C1p ] within their default location of C:\\Program Files \\ Phase ONE \\ Capture One PRO \\ Previews
    Files for All Sessions are kept in this location.
    The files remain there and any further adjustments are updated and saved. When a Session is removed from Capture One, they will need to be saved and archived.

    Hope this helps your out, Sincerely,
