Move Local Data to a Different Computer

IMPORTANT: It is possible to move your local data to a different computer, as described below. However, if you are working on one Teamwork project at a time, the Travel Pack function is the preferred workflow for transporting it between computers.

See Travel Pack: Move Your Project and Libraries to a Different Computer.

The Travel Pack is optimized for transporting one project at a time, whereas moving local data involves all the data from all Teamwork projects on your machine.

It is possible to use the “Move Local Data” feature to move your local data to a different machine - for example, your home computer - via a pen drive:

1.At the office, move your local data to a pen drive.

2.Take it home. On your home computer, start ARCHICAD and use the “Move Local Data” function again, defining the folder on the pen drive as the new location.

3.Since this folder contains data, ARCHICAD will henceforth use this location and this data as Local Data.
