Upgrading from 9 to 10

[Tammy Van Boening]

Thank you to Rick and Jeff. For those of you upgrading from 9 to 10 on Win
7, 64 bit systems, you copy both the .cfsw and .fws files FROM the following
directory 

 

C:\Users\<user
name>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\FrameMaker\9\WorkSpaces\UnStructured

 

TO the following directory:

 

C:\Users\<user
name>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\FrameMaker\10\WorkSpaces\UnStructured

 

Why this isn't done automatically if you are doing an upgrade and not a from
scratch install is beyond me, but all my workspaces are indeed now available
in Framemaker 10.

 

Again, thanks to this list. It's a lifesaving and sanity saving resource.

Found them - they're hiding in the hidden Application Data folder - on my XP
machine it's in C:\Documents and Settings\user_name\Application
Data\Adobe\FrameMaker\9\WorkSpaces\UnStructured\ (or Structured as the case
may be). Look for the .cfws and .fws files (not sure what the diff is
between them).

And, I received a 50/50 split on a previous inquiry as to whether an upgrade
would nuke my existing workspaces. I did not uninstall Framemaker 9 for this
reason before installing the upgrade, and sigh, no joy. No workspaces
apparently were saved. Before I uninstall Framemaker 9 (and fling it or
something to relieve my frustration out the window), is there anything that
I can save from FM 9/copy over from FM 9 to my FM 10 installation that might
magically recreate these workspaces automatically? 

Win 7, 64-bit system.

Thanks all,

TVB
