Profiles

4

Save all settings into a profile before modifying them. This way you will always be able to revert to your old settings if anything goes wrong. The "Initial Settings" profile is created on the very first Cacheman launch on your PC. This profile cannot be deleted (for safety reasons). Profiles can be managed in the Settings section.

Cacheman offers 9 predefined Windows 95/98/ME profiles.

Tip document

Cacheman creates a directory named Profiles in its installation directory to store user profiles. Each profile consist of a file with the extension cpf. You can replicate your custom profile on any other computer. You simply need to copy the cpf file to the target computer and load the profile through Cacheman. This feature is particularly useful if you have a large network of computers and want to apply the same settings to all the computers or while sending it to your friends.
