Apply database selection after new installation


You want or have to install Chessbase on a new computer. On the older computer you have entered many databases via icons into the main window "My databases" and this structure should now be taken over again after the new installation exactly as it was during the earlier installation.

If you have taken over exactly the same paths to the data directories on the new computer, it is not necessary to include these databases manually.

This information is permanently stored in the configuration file DBItems.cbini.

The default path is: "C:\Users\[name]\Documents\ChessBase\DBItems.cbini".

Of course, the adoption of this file requires that the paths on the new computer are identical to the previous installation!
