I found a thread on this that has been closed but I still need assistance.
Is it possible to save the entire clients settings and import them again so all my window positions are the same?
The Answer. You can clone the character settings files. They have names like core_char_*.dat where * is the character ID.
However, I don't have any DAT files?

On my Windows 7 computer, the files are located in the C:\Users\MyUsername\AppData\Local\CCP\EVE\c_program_files_(x86)_ccp_eve_tranquility\settings folder. AppData is a hidden folder. "haiku are easy, But sometimes they don't make sense, Refrigerator." |

Excellent, found it.
Now the core_char are there but with numbers, how do you save the interface so when I login it loads the interface? |

All I know is the char files are character-wise settings and the account files are account-wise settings, the files aren't really readable, but I think you can spot the character name through the clutter if you open them in a Notepad. However, I never bothered much, I just copied/pasted the whole bunch for backups.
Now, if you're asking whether you can backup the interface settings to load them onto another character, then you can't and you'll have to do that manually the first time. "haiku are easy, But sometimes they don't make sense, Refrigerator." |

Ah ok, so there is no way to save the interface setup to a specific character so it loads everytime you start the game? Such a mess having to reorganize every window everytime. |

You mean copying the interface layout across multiple characters or having to rearrange the layout of one character everytime you launch EVE?

This may sound stupid but have you tried pinning the windows? |

I can't recommend touching any client related files for any reason.
I used to backup / restore / clone window settings across multiple characters and accounts.
Getting a client modification perma-ban on all your accounts is just not worth having a backup, or all your windows looking the same.
Unless CCP provides a tool to do it, just don't do it. |

Thanks for the feedback and your help, it is resolved, I assume the engine handles it by itself :) |
