How do I sync data?

[BlueJayNinja]

Hello, I have obs log file for my old PC. I recently got a new PC and I want to import all my current data from my old PC to my new PC. Is there a fast way to do this?

I would not worry about the log files as they will be different on the new computer anyway.
Both the Scene Collection and the Profile can be exported to a thumb drive and then imported from that thumb drive on the new computer

also, for the import profile, it says that it already exists.

thx. ALso, what is the diffence between scene collection import and profile import?

The profile contains all the information to where you want to stream to like your streaming key
the Scene collection is exactly that it is the data that tells OBS where to find your sources on your computer to set your Scenes up.
Anytime you change your setup it modifies the Scene collection. You can have more than one Scene collection.
Can also have multiples in the profile in case you want to stream to different places, simply changed the profile and all your information is there so you don't need to enter it each time,

little tip many people put their stream files like pictures and so on the userdata folder thats bad when you change the computer or resinstall windows and you didnt use the same user name OBS cant find the Files so best ist make an Folder like c:\!Streaming so you can make a backup from this files and copy them on the C: on the new PC or instalation and didnt have problems
