Import and Export Settings

A .pake file carries the settings of one app or all of them, so you can move your apps to another computer, back them up, or share a tuned setup. Mac, Windows and Linux read the same files.

Export

• One app: ⋯ › Export Settings… in My Apps.
• All apps: File › Export All Settings… on Mac, or the ⋯ menu at the top of the window on Windows.

A file holds each app's name, address, window and behavior options, user agent, link rule, CSS, JavaScript and icon. It never holds sign-ins, cookies, your license or paths on your computer.

Import

Choose Import Settings… from the File menu on Mac, or the ⋯ menu on Windows.

• Pake checks the whole file first; if it cannot be used, Pake stops and shows This settings file is invalid or too large.
• Apps open one at a time on the normal app page, and Next App moves to the next one after each install. Pressing Return continues to that next app. A name that is already taken gets a number added, so nothing is replaced without asking.
• Imported CSS and JavaScript stay off until you read them under Advanced and click Use Imported Code.
• Each imported app is a new app for your license or free apps.
• Options the other platform does not have, such as Hide title bar on Windows, are ignored.

A file can hold up to 100 apps and 32 MB.
