Settings Migration Tool – RAD Studio
Posted by jpluimers on 2018/06/26
I totally missed that this was introduced in Delphi XE8: [Archive.is] Settings Migration Tool – RAD Studio.
It allows exporting/importing your Delphi settings and migrate them from older Delphi versions.
I need to try to find out which older Delphi versions it supports.

Help says supports Delphi 7 onwards. Forward only, of course.

Thanks. You now see how much I trust the help: I neer look into it at all.

Don’t know about you but it NEVER EVER worked for me. It screwed upgrades, each time.
It’s easier to install on top of an existing version.
I was fortunate to upgrade on a virtual machine with a snapshot before the upgrade, letting me switch back, but each time I had a working upgrade (meaning fully uninstall, and full install), applying the saved settings with the migration tool broke everything.

Thanks for that info. I still need to try.
