Backup & transfer

How to back up or transfer OmniScope layouts and configuration

Configuration export and import are available from version 1.11.52. On older versions, use the manual layout backup below.

To move your OmniScope setup to another machine, open Preferences > Config and use Export configuration.... OmniScope creates a .zip archive and lets you choose which parts of the setup to include, such as settings, panel layout, keyboard shortcuts, Stream Deck mapping, saved layouts, LUTs, ICC profiles, overlays, presets, and target sets.

To restore that setup on another machine, use Import configuration... from the same Config tab and select the exported archive. OmniScope backs up the current configuration before applying the import, then restarts to load the imported setup.

If an import rewrites the ICC profiles folder and then fails part-way through, OmniScope now drops any cached ICC transforms immediately, so it does not keep displaying a stale monitor correction until you restart manually.

Licenses, snapshots, logs, and machine-specific display profiles are not included in configuration exports.

Manual layout backup

Each layout is also saved as an individual file on disk, so it is still straightforward to copy only your layouts manually.

The easiest way to access the layout files is to go to Options / Open Logs:

Open Logs menu item

A new folder window opens. All saved layouts are stored in the layouts folder:

If you are updating OmniScope between older and newer versions and also need to move settings, see Migrating between versions.
