Task Internal - Export Settings

The Export settings Task does the same thing as Client File > Import/Export > Export settings but this Task lets automatically backup the VisualCron settings.

VisualCron uses a number of XML files to store settings, these are located in the VisualCron settings folder (by default installation: C:\Program Files (x86)\VisualCron\settings). Export/backup is performed by the VisualCron Server that you are currently connected to. You may Export settings across the Internet.

It is recommended to perform regular backups/exports to this file. If a setting error occurs and a backup exists in the default backup file path, VisualCron will use the backup file and automatically restore settings. It is a recommendation that you keep a backup file both in the default folder and in another place.

VisualCron is automatically adding a Job with the Export settings Task and it is a recommendation to keep this Task in your Job list.
