Manually migrate your configuration settings from version 6 after the initial upgrade to version 7 or later
After you upgrade your ESET product for macOS from version 6 to version 7, version 7 imports your version 6 configuration. It only imports feature settings implemented in the current version 7 release. Settings not imported due to missing features are stored and can be used to import the missing configuration to a later version. Settings not yet implemented are stored here:
/Library/Application Support/ESET/Security/Backup/ConfigurationV6
You can use this file to transfer your configuration from version 6 during the next upgrade of your version 7 product. To transfer the missing configuration:
-
Before starting the upgrade from the earlier version 7 to the latest version, copy the ConfigurationV6 file from:
/Library/Application Support/ESET/Security/Backup/ -
Paste it to the folder:
/Library/Application Support/ESET/Security/AutoImport/ -
Run the upgrade. All configurations from version 6 present in the version you are upgrading to will be imported. The rest of the configurations, which you can use in subsequent upgrades, will be saved in:
/Library/Application Support/ESET/Security/Backup/ConfigurationV6
