Follow this guide to safely transfer your visual workspaces and assets to a new machine or backup drive.

  2. Click Export Preferences.
  3. Transfer and import the preference file on the new machine.

Step 4: Ingest on the New Computer

  3. Choose your .fj package.
  4. Select Merge at Root or Overwrite to restore the project.
