Migrating additional application settings
To create custom application files, you must have a thorough knowledge of the application, including the
storage locations of customized settings. By default, System Migration Assistant is pre-configured to
migrate settings for several applications. You can also create a custom application file to migrate settings
for additional applications. This file must be named application.xml or application.smaapp and located in
the c:\%RR%\Migration\bin\Apps, where Apps specifies the application and c is the drive letter of the
hard disk drive. Priority is given to the application.smaapp file when both the application.smaapp file and
application.xml custom applications file of the same application exist.
To support a new application, you can copy an existing application file and make the necessary changes.
For example, Microsoft_Access.xml is an existing application file.
Consider the following points about application files:
• application.xml
– By default, only application.xml exists.
– The <tag> enclosed with "<!--" and "-->" is treated as comments. For example:
<!–Files_From_Folders>
<!-Files_From_Folder>%AppData Directory%\Adobe\Acrobat\Whapi\*.* /s
</Files_From_Folder>
<Files_From_Folder>%Personal Directory/Files_from_Folder>
</Files_From_folders–>
– Each command must be described in a separate section.
– Each section begins with a command enclosed by tags, for example, <AppInfo> or <Install_Directories>.
You can enter one or more fields in a section; each field must be on a separate line.
– If the application file contains syntax errors, the operation continues and writes the errors to the log file.
The following table shows information about application files:
