    In the files menu you should see menu settings. Just insert the sd card and export them

    It does but there are times a full restore is the only fix

    NOTE: Saved menu settings does not save custom views and there global settings

    If you did 3.400 and will be doing 3.420, there was and will be a full restore done as part of the updates.

    Previously exported settings files prior to 3.360 will not be able to be imported once 3.420 is installed.
    Another reason for a Master Global Control Page

    Another 192 globals I have to turn off!

    If you did 3.400, you can use your saved settings after installing 3.420. Still have to re-do the custom views though, custom views are not default.

    Then they really need to remove that statement from the download page

    No the statement refers to those that have not been keeping up with updates and are lower than 3.360.
