Archiving Data
Backing up the Corporate Database
© National Instruments Corporation
National Instruments recommends that you regularly back up the files
created within the Multisim and Ultiboard components of NI Circuit
Design Suite. Additionally, you should back up internal files that store
user-created data, such as database components. This section provides
information on where to find these files in order to properly back them up.
NI Circuit Design Suite stores program and user data in two possible
locations. Files that need to be accessed on a per-machine basis are stored
in different locations, depending on the operating system. Files that are
created on a per-user basis are stored in the Windows per-user folder.
Multisim and Ultiboard share the same three database files: Master,
Corporate, and User.
