Sharing the Omnia.9 NfRemote Connection Database and Display Options
Scope
This document covers how to export and move/share the NfRemote connection database and display configurations to another PC.
Q
I am wondering if there is a way to export the list of logins I have made for the Omnia 9 and import them into another computer. I have a dozen different logins saved and it would be nice not to have to do it manually, one by one.
A
Yes,
The connection database is in the registry.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\NfRemote
It’s the “Data” binary value.
You can export from regedit, and import on another machine by double-clicking on the REG file.
Before sharing, I recommend opening it in Notepad and deleting the “Installed”, “Path” and “Timestamp” values, leaving only the “Data” value, so that these system-specific keys don’t get imported into other systems.
As for the display configurations, you’ll find them in:
c:\Users\user\AppData\Local\NfRemote\
There is one ini file per unit you connect to, per instance.
For example, connecting to OMNIA9 with serial number 99901, the file name will be:
Omnia.9 - OMNIA9-99901 - Remote (1).ini
If you start another NfRemote instance in parallel, it’ll be
Omnia.9 - OMNIA9-99901 - Remote (2).ini
There are several command line parameters available, most of them are listed in:
c:\Users\user\AppData\Local\NfRemote\NfRemote.txt
