Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
I want to have a backup copy of my reminders and preferences. Where are they stored?
MiniReminder events and preferences are stored in the "minireminder.events"
and "minireminder.prefs" files, respectively. These files are located in the
same folder where the program was installed (usually "C:\Program Files\MiniReminder\", or "C:\Users\<username>\MiniReminder\" in Windows Vista).
These are the files to backup.
I have bought a new computer, and I want to move MiniReminder there without losing any of my reminders and preferences. What should I do?
MiniReminder uses, basically, the following files:
- minireminder.events: the events file.
- minireminder.prefs: the preferences file.
These files are located in the same folder where the program is installed (usually "C:\Program Files\MiniReminder\", or "C:\Users\<username>\MiniReminder\" in Windows Vista). You can copy them to a floppy disk or a USB key.
Once you have installed MiniReminder on your new computer, you can put the previously copied files into the corresponding folder on your new computer (replacing the default ones). That's it!
There is an small red exclamation in front of some events. What does it mean?
The small red exclamation sign in front of an event means that you have set special warning limits for this event (instead of the default ones as set in 'Preferences').
How do I upgrade to a new version of MiniReminder?
To upgrade your version of MiniReminder, simply install the new version. The new version will cleanly replace the old version, and all your valuable events and preferences will automatically be preserved.
What languages does MiniReminder support?
MiniReminder is currently available in Catalan, English, Danish, Estonian, French, Italian, or Spanish. See this section.
