Export/Import BIOS settings for BIOS Upgrade?

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Please tell me I've missed something, and that I don't have to take screen photos of my BIOS 1.30 settings and then manually reapply everything after I upgrade to 1.80?  I initially assumed I could import one of UEFI saves but they disappear when you upgrade - only the saves for your current BIOS version can be loaded. 

 Yes, they're "bin" files but that's the bug - it should also be possible to save them as XML, so they can be re-imported and re-applied AUTOMATICALLY after the ugprade.  My router is capable of this - I can save off its configuration as XML, upgrade the BIOS, and then re-import the settings.

This is 2018 - I shouldn't have to take photos of my BIOS screen to manually reapply them.

Pardon me if I've missed something obvious.

	Why was my post moved from the Tech Support section, with no comment? Does that mean there's no way to solve my problem? I was hoping there was some solution, but now that's moved, it's going to get less traffic from experienced users.
