Where Does Hand2Note Store Its Database?
Where Hand2Note keeps its h2ndb database, HUD configs and notes.
Last updated
Hand2Note splits into database and program halves: hands in Roaming\Hand2Note\h2ndb, HUDs and settings in Config under Program Files\Hand2Note. Notes and marked hands get their own install folders.
The Database settings page opens the live folder and changes it with a restart. Copy database contents for moves between drives, and the Config tree for HUD migrations. Delete stale DbServer lock files when the app refuses to start.
Where Hand2Note stores this, by platform
%APPDATA%\Hand2Note\h2ndb\
Hand database root. Change it from Configuration, Database with an app restart. HUDs live separately in the install Config folder. Copy both trees for full migrations.
Frequently asked questions
How do I move Hand2Note to a new PC?
Copy the h2ndb folder contents to the matching Roaming path on the new PC. Open Folder under Configuration, Database shows the live path when yours differs from default.
What must I copy to keep HUDs and notes?
Copy the Config folder from the Hand2Note install directory plus Notes, MarkedHands and HandsWithNotes. HUDs and popups live with the program, not with the database, so both halves must travel.
