Cannot import registered servers in the interface

• 
  Hi, thank you for your forum post.
  
  As you have discovered, each user has their SQL Backup GUI, as each user's configuration is located within their Windows profile settings (C:\Users\<User Name>\).
  
  The SQL Backup GUI was never designed for multiple users to share the same interface.
  
  The good news is that you can copy the User_1's configuration to User_2, as follows:
  
  1. Ensure that the SQL Backup GUI is closed for User_2.
  
  2. On User_1 machine / profile, locate the following folder:
  C:\Users\<User_1>\AppData\Local\Red gate\SQL Backup\Server Data
  The Server Data folder will contain a number of random numbered .dat files, each one corresponding to a registered server and a localDataCache.dat.
  
  3. Copy the User_1 Server Data folder to User_2's profile on their machine / profile:
  C:\Users\<User_2>\AppData\Local\Red gate\SQL Backup\Server Data
  
  4. On User_1 machine / profile locate the following file called 'Servers.dat' in this path:
  C:\Users\User_1\AppData\Roaming\Red Gate\SQL Backup\
  
  5. Copy the User_1 servers.dat file to User_2's profile on their machine / profile:
  C:\Users\User_2\AppData\Roaming\Red Gate\SQL Backup\
  
  6. User_2 now opens their SQL Backup GUI. All being well the configuration created by User_1 will be available.
  
  Please be aware, any change made by User_1 after performing the above will not be passed to User_2. Likewise, any change made by User_2 will not be passed to User_1.
  
  I hope the above helps.
  
  Many Thanks
  Eddie
