4.15. Manage Files Dialog
As you use your Palmtop device to communicate, you will build up a number of custom files such as user
configurations, recorded sounds, imported images, and stored text files. On occasion, you might want to
manually delete or rename these files. To do this, select
Tools > File Utilities > Manage Files and the
Manage Files dialog will open.
Figure 22: The Manage Files Dialog
The Manage Files dialog consists of a list of custom files of the specified type, a control for changing the file
type, and buttons for renaming and deleting selected files. By default, the viewport displays the user
configurations on the system.
To rename a configuration, select the configuration in the list to highlight it, then select the Rename button.
Enter the new configuration name in the small window that opens.
Warning: If you select the Delete button instead of the Rename button, the software will ask if
you want to delete the selected config. In this case, select No . Be very sure that when you really
want to delete a file, you have a safe backup of the file on your PC before using Delete .
You can also use the Manage Files dialog to delete several configurations at the same time. To do this, hold
down the Ctrl key on your keyboard while clicking on each configuration that you want to delete. All of the
configurations that you select will be highlighted. When you select the Delete button, the configurations will
be deleted. You cannot rename several files at once.
If you want to rename or delete other types of files, you will need to change the file type using the drop-down
menu at the top left side of the
Manage Files dialog. The following file types are available:
• Pages Individual symbol and phrase pages (section 5.5)
• Keyboards Customized keyboards (section 5.6)
• Text Files Text files saved with File>Save Text As
• Sounds Recorded sounds stored in the . wav format (section 4.21)
• Packed Files Packed configurations (section 4.1.3.3)
• Logfiles Encrypted logging activity (section 4.18)
• Profiles User profile information (section 4.16)
• Databases Word prediction databases (section 4.10.6)
• Backups Device backup files (PC Editor only)(section 3.13.2)
