Importing settings from 8 to 9: workspace is not imported.
Hi, I've imported the settings from 8 version (was running in XP) into 9 (running in win7), but my workspace have not been properly moved, though HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\EmSoft\EmEditor v3\Common\Workspace is exists and it have old workspace files listed there.
But when I press ctrl+0 - that old workspace not loading.
Even more: when I try to make new workpace via ctrl+shift+0 and then restore it with ctrl+0 it is restores properly, but that register parameter still have my old workspace files listed there.

So I guess 9 version stores workspace somewhere else? If so, then where? Cause I still want to import that old 8-version workspace I have.

Thanks!

In EmEditor Version 9, the workspace is saved in C:\Users\Yutaka\AppData\Local\Emurasoft\EmEditor\Workspace. The workspace format is different from the registry version for version 8, so you can't import your old workspace into the new version, unfortunately.

Re: Importing settings from 8 to 9: workspace is not imported.
is there an easy way to extract the files & paths from old registryworkspace key? I know they're in hex, but I'm not sure how to easy convert it to usual text file list.

ah, already did it, with hex>ascii converter and some handwork cleaning.
