About Using Saved Profiles in Another Computer
You can easily use any saved profile (
.tvp
file in the
Windows\nView
directory
)
from one computer and use it in another computer, if you want. You’ll need to copy it
to the
Windows\nView
directory of a computer that has the NVIDIA ForceWare
graphics display driver, etc. installed properly. Then this profile can be loaded from
another computer from the nView Desktop Manager Profiles page just as it can from
your original computer.
