There is a complete FAQ covering what file(s) you can/need to backup in
these cases. Its in the built-in help file of DC++ (or you can browse it
in the web based copy of the help at
http://dcplusplus.sourceforge.net/webhelp/faq_settings_files.html)

The backup/restore settings function is a good idea though, that'd help
inexperienced users to move all settings to another Windows
installation...

Bug description:
Well... I am not sure whether I should post such an idea here, but I didn't really know where else.

It occured to me that it would be brilliant if you could import/export hub favorites and maybe even user favorites. So that you can easily back-up your favorites. 
Due to all my downloading I have to format my computer quite frequently (probably like once a year), I reckon I'm not the only one who has to do that. Evenso, every time I format my computer I have to search for my favorite hubs all over again, while it would be so easy just to have a file backuped with all that information, that could be imported.

I hope you like my idea. Would save a lot of time for (frequent) users and wouldn't be to hard to implement I think (eventhough I'm not a hardcore programmer).

If there is another very easy solution to my problem, like copying a specific file (or part) in the directory structure then please let me know.

Kind regards,
