Copy personal settings to a new Tekla Structures version

You can copy some personal settings from an older Tekla Structures version to a newer Tekla Structures version using the Migration Wizard tool.

The Migration Wizard starts automatically when you start a new version of Tekla Structures for the first time.

The Migration Wizard shows the version number from which the settings are copied and the version number to which the settings are copied. You can select which settings are copied. You can copy any of the following settings and values:

  • .tsep extensions that you imported to the Applications & components catalog in the previous version

  • Settings files:

    • User files

    • Option files

  • Registry values, such as:

    • Toolbars

    • Dialog boxes

    • Actions

    • General options

    • User menu and work areas

  1. Start the new Tekla Structures version or start the Migration Wizard manually.

    To start the Migration Wizard manually, double-click the MigrationWizard.exe file in the ..\Tekla Structures\<version>\bin\applications\Tekla\Migrations folder.

  2. In the Migration Wizard, click Next to start copying the settings.
  3. Select the settings that you want to copy, then click Next.
  4. Check that you have selected the correct settings.
  5. Click Copy.

If you copied .tsep extensions, restart Tekla Structures to install the extensions.
