I think this was a good suggestion in this discussion https://github.com/UniversalMediaServer/UniversalMediaServer/discussions/2949

Ok great. How would you do it?

I am still trying to find out if the settings are saved somewhere in a db table(s). If they are we can export the settings to a JSON file maybe. I am not sure of the term 'drives' the user suggested in the discussion. Did it mean the shared folders where media is stored?

Normally, all settings, databases and temp files are located on profile folder or appdata folder.

On the root : UMS.conf (apache conf file) : Most of the settings are stored here. WEB.conf (web feeds and streams) VirtualFolders.conf (virtual folders) UMS.cred : creds for opensubtitles and web interface ffmpeg.webfilters : ffmpeg web filters

UMS.dat : file that keep the WindowProperties -> not to be saved.

On the renderers folder : You have the customized renderer's conf files and images.

On the data folder : Files that relate to temp locale things (pid / playlists / resume files) -> not to be saved.

On the database folder : The database where UMS store medias datas -> maybe not to be saved as it is file location related.

  • Did it mean the shared folders where media is stored?

I think so, it is already included in UMS.conf.
