NOTE: http://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=357309#p357309 reports this article "is referencing MediaMonkey version 3 locations for the DB and ini files."
To back up your database and settings, copy the contents of the directory indicated, depending on what OS you're using:
- XP/Windows 2000: C:\Documents and Settings\<User>\Local Settings\Application Data\MediaMonkey
- Vista / Windows 7: C:\users\<User Name>\AppData\Local\MediaMonkey\
- Windows 9x/Me: C:\WINDOWS\Application Data\MediaMonkey\ or C:...\My Music\MediaMonkey\Data\
Note that some configuration settings that are stored to the registry will not be backed up. they are transcoded and leveled as follows:
- WMA --> WMA 128 kbps CBR
- OGG --> OGG Q4
- Other formats are encoded to the encoder defaults for the given format
- For other tracks that are in a format that isn't supported by the device, they are trancoded and leveled to MP3 128 kbps CBR
Note that any of these defaults can be overridden simply by adding a new conversion rule.
