Hello,

Sierra Chart offers a lot of functionalities and customisation, which is absolutely great. However with so many things to customise I would like to know:
- Are my settings being synced with my Sierre Chart account?
- If not, what do you recommend as best practises for backing up Sierra Chart?

Secondly, I understood that it is possible to install Sierra Chart on multiple computers. However how can you make sure that these instances are using the same settings etc?
Would you recommend installing Sierra Chart within the folder of a cloud service such as Dropbox in order to access this installation from multiple computers?

Many thanks for your answers.

David

Hi,

Thanks for the quick reply.

Could you please elaborate a bit on the backup part of my question?

Setting up Sierra Chart takes quite some time so I would like to make sure that this is backed up properly as to not lose the work.

Regards,
David

Just make a backup of the entire Sierra Chart folder it is installed to. This is all you need to do.

Guess I was making it more difficult than it has to be.
