Sync question

Unread post by Splat » 2017-09-22, 23:48

Never used sync before and have a question about it. If I set up a PC with PM and sync it to PM's server is it possible to reinstall PM later and get all my settings that were synced back onto that same PC? If so, how would this be done because I tried it and it doesn't appear I can do this. Thank you.

Please read the general information about the Sync service, especially the part "what is Pale Moon Sync NOT for". (it is not for backup purposes).
http://www.palemoon.org/sync/

If you want to backup your profile you can use the Pale Moon backup tool available on the website or any other backup tool of your choice.
