Recommended method to transfer DL-Windows Accounts
• The recommended method is use a USB Flash Drive to transfer the files.
The “Import a Single ADF Account file” feature is only supported by DL-Windows version 3.5.5 and greater. This method
will assume that a USB Flash Drive is already working on the system. Note: DL-Windows should not be running on either system.
Account files are in pairs. Acctx.Adf is the Account file and the Acctx_Log.adf is the Event Log for that Account. For
this example (shown in the image below), the files Acct2.adf and Acct2_Log.adf are used. Please note that some systems do not display file extensions, and you may only see Acct2 and Acct2_Log--this is OK. Please proceed as if the
file extensions are shown.
On the source computer (the computer from which you want to transfer the Account files), open Windows Explorer
from the Start, Programs menu. Locate the installation folder to which DL-Windows was installed (if you chose the installation defaults, it should be “C:\DL-Windows”). Highlight the Account files you wish to transfer by holding down the
“Ctrl” key and clicking each file with the mouse one by one. Right-click the highlighted files and select C

On the target computer, open Windows Explorer and click the USB Disk. Click to highlight the files to transfer,
right-click and click C
folder and click on the Import folder. Like before, right-click in the right hand pane and click P
