"save all user data" option

[elcato]

If I may also suggest adding an option to quickly backup and load all the "Settings - Bookmarks - History - Filters - Sessions - the Database" with one option that will immediately save all these settings into a predefined folder, where the folder name is the current date, in this format "12-04-2025", with a keyboard shortcut like "Ctrl+Alt+B" . So If you fear of a crash, or you are not sure if something wrong could happen during your testing, or you want to test a new update to Everything, you can simply press the shortcut, then install the new update, or even restore all you setting with one option very quickly and efficiently.

I know you can back every one of those settings "except the Sessions and Database" by going to their respected menus, but a one click solution is far more superior and faster that going through all these windows and settings one by one to backup. Especially if it saves to an automatic folder names by the date .

This can be done with any external backup script without any user interaction.
I use the ZPAQ Deduplicating archiver, which allows me to bring back every single file or complete versions.
Because of deduplication, the archive stays small while it can contain thousands of versions.

BACKUP9.EXE is a free Windows command line program that maintains a number of historical backups (9 by default) of one or more files.

So (a desktop shortcut, that you click) something along the lines of:

BACKUP9.EXE %APPDATA%\Everything c:\mybackups


might be sufficient?
