Hi, I'd like to know which files in my "SierraChart" folder on my C: drive I should back up in order to save my chartbook plus the way it's laid out (want it on a flash drive). Specifically I mean the color and shape of my candles, my chart timeframes, the products I have in my Quote Board, that I have 3 charts that appear on all 3 of my monitors at once, etc. I took a guess and have been backing up the entire "Data" folder but it's now 12 GB. I see a "Backups" folder but not sure if that's what I need. Thank you!
