Once you have the installations copied, the problem of keeping the two systems in sync can be resolved with the tool called SyncToy. You can Google it. You set up both computers on your network and map a network drive to your Data folder on the other machine. Then you create a pair that is the two data folders, one local and the other one. SyncToy has options to copy over any new files or new versions of existing files, and you can do it one way or both ways. You can avoid copying the large DLY and SCID files with the exclude option. You should only need the files with the extensions CHT, SCSS, DLL, StudyCollection, and TWConfig. The DLLs won't copy if Sierra Chart is running, so you may want to close the app and copy those once, then exclude them from regular updates.
