Export Workspace

You can export your Guardian Workspace data to a file, which you can use for backup and recovery purposes, or to import to another Guardian instance.

WARNING: To prevent loss of work when Guardian is updated or uninstalled, make sure your Workspace and any Workspace export files are located outside of your Guardian Installation directory.

To export a Guardian Workspace, do the following:

  1. Select File > Export.

    2. This opens the Export Workspace Wizard.

  2. In the Export dialog box, open the Guardian folder and select Guardian Workspace.
    3. Note: To clear a typed entry, click the Clear icon (file page icon) to the right of the destination field. This clears the Select an export destination field and redisplays the default folder tree.
  3. Click Next.
  4. For Select File, specify the file name and location to which to save your Workspace data.

    5. Use one of the following methods to specify the file:

    • Type in the absolute path name and file name.
    • Click Browse to display a file browser from which you can select the file. Click Save to select the file and return to the Export Workspace Wizard.
  5. Click Finish.

    6. This saves your current Workspace as a .zip file containing all of your Workspace data, including the guardian.registry, .project and .refresh files.
