Quick Access Toolbar
What file saves the customized QAT, so I can retrieve it from the archive and restore it from a previous version?

Unfortunately, they are saved in the registry, not a file.
You can export from the registry though.

Re: Quick Access Toolbar
I have created a batch file that I use frequently to backup the Exp data folder as well as the registry key from Exp. For this you can include the following command:
regedit /E <target file> HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Expedition
There is no parameter for regedit to skip the Windows message prompting you if it is OK to access the registry, so there you have to click "yes" manually once the batch file is executing.

If you don't want to save everything, the display states are saved in the Expedition\Expedition\WorkSpace, Expedition\Expedition\DefaultState etc hives.

Re: Quick Access Toolbar
Thanks to both of you. I've explored the registry key (whole new territory), but which part is the QAT setup, so I can export it and safe if somewhere? Is it per State?

Re: Quick Access Toolbar
Yes, each state is saved separately - DefaultState etc ...
