You may want to backup your Cmder settings and configurations in case you need to reinstall Cmder, move to a different machine, or share them with others. Here are some ways to do that:

👉 Note: For simplicity, we are describing the process of backing up your entire Cmder directory, which is both more resource intensive, and slower. You might want to only backup your[cmder]\config folder, which is really the only important part that contains your settings and configuration.

You can use a cloud service such as Dropbox, Google Drive, or OneDrive to sync your Cmder folder across devices. To do that, you need to:

1. Move your Cmder folder to the cloud service folder of your choice, e.g.C:\Users\yourname\Dropbox\Cmder.
2. Create a symbolic link from the original location of your Cmder folder to the new location, e.g.mklink /D C:\apps\Cmder C:\Users\yourname\Dropbox\Cmder.
3. Make sure your cloud service is running and syncing your Cmder folder.

You can also backup your Cmder folder to a local folder such as a USB drive or an external hard drive. To do that, you need to:

1. Copy your Cmder folder to the local folder of your choice, e.g.E:\Cmder.
2. Optionally, you can create a batch file or a shortcut to launch Cmder from the local folder.

To restore your Cmder settings and configurations from a backup, you need to:

1. Copy or sync your backup folder to the desired location of your Cmder folder, e.g.C:\apps\Cmder.
2. Optionally, you can update your environment variables and shortcuts to point to the new location of your Cmder folder.
