Script: Backup and Restore Flash Pro Config Files

Justin | Flash,jsfl | Thursday, September 1st, 2011

I had a customer who was losing Flash configuration data due to roaming profiles in Windows, similar to the situation described on this forum thread.

So, I wrote this script as a potential antidote to that problem. When the script is run (by opening with Flash Pro), it will allow you to either back-up or restore all of your configuration files for that installation of Flash Pro.

In certain specific cases (no guarantees)—where the machine, the username, and the Flash version remain consistent—this could be used to maintain a SmartMouth activation (as well as other extensions and settings) through a Flash, CS, or OS reinstall.

The script is pretty experimental at this point, so please use with caution.
