I downloaded *mnemosyne-2.1-RC1-setup.exe* and installed it onto my Windows 7 laptop.
I finally want to move my information from my old version of Mnemosyne to the new version. The old way to make a portable version was to move the .mnemosyne file over to the USB stick. The new instructions don't mention this. The instructions here: http://www.mnemosyne-proj.org/help/running-from-usb-drive.php say: 1. First, copy the Mnemosyne program directory from C:\Program Files\Mnemosyne to your USB drive // OK, no problems there. 2. then copy your data directory from inside your home directory (usually C:\Users\<your user name>\Application Data\Mnemosyne) to inside the Mnemosyne program directory on the USB drive. // There is no mention on the instructions that a Windows user probably has to SHOW hidden files, folders, and drives to see the AppData folder (Not Application Data on my Windows 7 install). // In addition, I'm presented with 3 folders, Local, LocalLow and Roaming. In the Roaming folder, I found a Mnemosyne folder (only after I started Mnemosyne, because it didn't show up before I did.) I copied this folder over to my Mnemosyne folder I previously copied onto my USB drive. // The file structure is vastly different comparing the old version and the new version. *Questions:* Q1. Am I missing anything? Is that all I need to do to make a portable version? Q2. In the old version, I could open the config.py file and insert: # The translation to use, e.g. 'de' for German (including quotes). # If set to None, the system's locale will be used. *locale = 'en'* * * as I wish the interface to stay in English, regardless of the operating system I'm using. There doesn't seem to be either instructions about this anymore, and the config.py has changed a lot. Please advise. Q3. Since a .mnemosyne file doesn't seem to exist, where do I put all my information in the newer version of Mnemosyne? I had a folder called My Lists in my .mnemosyne folder with my various lists, and another folder inside with My Images where I stored all the images that went with the cards I created. Can I just copy the My Lists folder that was inside the .mnemosyne folder into the new D:\Mnemosyne folder? Q4. After I get these questions answered, I figure the next step will be just export my lists from the old version and import them into the new version. Is this correct?
