Hey!
I am reinstalling my database and have it up and running.
At the moment I am copying all my datamined hands which is said to take 4 days.
Q1) Can I import these full hands in a "purge observed hands" mode already while I am importing to speed things up and keep the database smaller? or do I have to wait until all hands are imported and then purge them?
Q2) Is there another way to make the import quicker then just manually keep it running for 4 days?
Q3) In this faq
FAQ - Hold'em Manager Poker Tracking Software :: Reinstalling on a new PC - Backup Tips (http://faq.holdemmanager.com/questions/372/Reinstalling+on+a+new+PC+-+Backup+Tips)
The settings in HM is transfered by copying the whole HM folde. Can I do the same thing eventhough I have already copied a lot of hands into the database already or does the copying need to be done before importing the hands?

Q1) there is no other way

Q2) you should import the files in smaller portions via import file. So you can use your computer while you are not importing.

Q3) you mean the config folder? its no problem to copy the files later. This doesn't affect the database.
