I use a sync program to do that ... I'm even syncing to a directory in my cloud storage solution so that all my laptops/pi's / nucs / ... are synched.

Thanks for answering, that's not exactly what i want to do.
But that's a good idea. Is there à way to save only qlc or do you simply save all your computer on the cloud ? Can you explain how you do and what you use ? Many thanks.
If someone know the path of the qlc program and what folder to save to be able to export it on an another computer, be my guest. Many thanks.

The files you need are:

1. your .qxw file (the main workspace file) and included media (audio/video, button images, background images,...)
2. support files (fixture definitions, input profiles, rgb scripts,...) they are of two kinds:
2.1 system (installed by default) -- you don't need to backup these as they are included in the installer
2.2 your custom definitions

For exact paths for 2.1 and 2.2 see https://www.qlcplus.org/docs/html_en_EN ... swers.html Questions 4 and 5.
