Hi, I have Beersmith 3 (BS3) running on Linux.  I just got a windows 10 laptop and installed BS3 there.  Is there a way to copy the configuration files from the Linux machine to Windows so that I do not have to re-create them?  Recipes as well?

Thanks
 
On the Linux side all of the data is in the ~/.beersmith3 directory.  I believe you can take that entire directory and copy it to your windows machine and then put it in your Documents/BeerSmith3 directory on windows (after installing and running the program once) and it should pick up the data.

Please close BeerSmith before copying the data over, and as always make backups of everything before you start.
