connections with third-party source control - will they be retained?

[Guest]

I have RoboHelp installed on my hard drive. Company is swapping out my hard drive and I will need to reinstall it.

All my RH projects are connected to a third-party source control mechanism (Visual SourceSafe).

When I reinstall RH, will the connections to Visual SourceSafe be retained for all my projects?

Oh--I should be more clear. Company is swapping out hard drive and I will need to reinstall RoboHelp to the new hard drive.

Hi,

Just getting the latest version should work. I had a similar problem after a crash. RoboHelp can't detect which projects are in the VSS database, but after getting them, it all worked fine.

You may however still want to backup your projects on a removable media to be sure. After the reinstall, just make sure the VSS client in installed, copy your project from the media and get back to work -- Could it be that simple? Well, it was for me.

Greet,

Willam
