Importing/Exporting and Managing Personal Configurations


The CAVS configurations can be exported/imported, activated and managed through the Configuration panel accessible by clicking 'Configuration' tab under 'General Settings' in 'Advanced Settings' interface.


Click the area on which you would like more information:

  • Export a stored configuration to a file
  • Import a saved configuration from a file
  • Select a different active configuration setting
  • Delete a inactive configuration profile


Exporting a stored configuration to a file

  1. Open 'Configurations' panel by clicking 'Configuration' under General Settings in 'Advanced Tasks' interface




  1. Select the configuration, click the handle at the foot of the interface and choose 'Export'.

You will have the option to save any changes done in the selected configuration before exporting.




  1. Click 'Yes' to save the changes to the current configuration before exporting, else click 'No'.

The 'Select a path to export the configuration' dialog will open.




  1. Navigate to the location where you want to save the configuration file, type a name (e.g., 'My CAVS Profile') for the file to be saved in .cfgx format and click 'Save'.

A confirmation dialog will appear on successful export of the configuration.




Importing a saved configuration from a file

Importing a configuration profile allows you to store any profile within CAVS. Any profiles you import do not become active until you select them for use.


To import a profile

  1. Open 'Configurations' panel by clicking 'Configuration' under General Settings in 'Advanced Tasks' interface, click the handle at the foot of the interface and choose Import from the options.




The 'Select a configuration file to import' dialog will open.




  1. Navigate to the location of the saved profile and click 'Open'.

  2. The 'Import As' dialog will appear. Enter a name for the profile you wish to import and click 'OK'.




A confirmation dialog will appear indicating the successful import of the profile.




Once imported, the configuration profile is available for deployment by selecting it.




Selecting and Implementing a different configuration profile


You can change the configuration profile active in CAVS at any time from the 'Configurations' panel.


To change the active configuration profile

  1. Open 'Configurations' panel by clicking 'Configuration' under General Settings in 'Advanced Tasks' interface

  2. Select the configuration profile you want to activate, click the handle at the foot of the interface and choose Activate from the options.




You will be prompted to save the changes to the settings in you current profile before the new profile is deployed.




  1. Click 'Yes' to save the changes to current configuration, else click 'No'. The new profile will be implemented immediately and the confirmation dialog will be displayed.




Deleting an inactive configuration profile


You can remove any unwanted configuration profiles from the list of stored configuration profiles. You cannot delete the profile that CAVAS is currently using - only the inactive ones. For example if the COMODO – Server Security is the active profile, you can only delete the inactive profiles.


To remove an unwanted profile

  1. Open 'Configurations' panel by clicking 'Configuration' under General Settings in 'Advanced Tasks' interface

  2. Select the configuration profile you want to delete, click the up arrow from the bottom center and choose Remove from the options.




A confirmation dialog will be displayed.




  1. Click 'Yes'. The configuration profile will be deleted from your computer.
