Migrating putty settings from one desktop/laptop to other

Migrating putty settings from one desktop/laptop to the other box comes in handy when you had already customized your putty with saved sessions. The migration will also help a new member of an exisitng DBA support team.

Here are the steps

1. Start -> Run (or Windows Button + R)

2. Type in ‘regedit’ and press enter - this command will open the registry editor window

3. Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER -> Software -> SimonTatham

4. Right Click on SimonTatham and select Export

5. Provide a file name and save the file

Copy and execute the exported file on the new machine, then import into new machine by double click it

Note: this will only bring the putty configurations and NOT the putty executable itself.
