Lee
By Lee in Guides,
Switching from DC++ to ApexDC++ Due to ApexDC++'s gaining popularity, many users are going to want to switch from their original client to ApexDC++. You can follow the steps below to ensure you can save your downloads and settings. Go to the your original client's program files folder (Program Files/DC++ or /StrongDC++, etc)
Find the following files depending on what you want to save: queue.xml (downloads)
dcplusplus.xml (settings - not recommended, since conflicts can occur)
favourites.xml (favourite users)
hashdata.data and hashindex.xml (share hash data)
adlsearch.xml (adl search preferences)
profiles.xml (client detection rules)
[*]Simply copy over the files to your Program Files/ApexDC++/Settings location [*]Start up ApexDC++ You should now have all your downloads, settings, etc. Please note that DC++'s settings is different to ApexDC++ (less options), so go through your settings and check your settings. :)
