Title: Importing profiles from old Miranda?
Post by: unshaven on 28 12 2018, 13:38:44

I just became aware of the existence of "miranda NG", installed it, and am now staring at the profile manager.
So I am wondering now: is it somehow possible to import profiles from my old miranda installation into miranda-NG?

Import from NG to NG: just put old profile folder (folder with profilename.dat inside) to ProfileDir. See ProfileDir path in mirandaboot.ini

If you want convert complete IM installation (plugins, etc) to NG, see https://wiki.miranda-ng.org/index.php?title=Installation_and_update#Upgrading_Miranda_IM_to_Miranda_NG
