Gear warning.jpg WARNING

The source and target computers should have the same VTube version before copying a configuration to the target computer.

 It is safe to copy a configuration from a source VTube computer to a target VTube computer as long as the program versions and build numbers on both computers are identical.

If the versions and builds are not the same, then the VTube target computer may not be able to use the new configuration files.

Click in the top toolbar Information button to check the current version for both VTubes before you copy a configuration.


Follow These Steps at the SOURCE VTube Computer

STEP 1 - Flash Drive

If you want to use a flash drive to transfer the configuration from the SOURCE computer, then insert it into the appropriate port on the SOURCE computer now.
