Backing Up Docks
Wednesday, August 24, 2005 by BDMagee | Discussion: ObjectDock
How do you back-up docks and icons? Is there a way to recover old docks? I tried the save as and package theme options but it doesn't restore my docks and icons.

First, you will need to save your theme(s) = "Dock Settings > General category > Save Theme as".
Then you can copy the following folders and burn to disc:
- Backgrounds
- Docklets
- Themes
- Images
- any image folders that you may have made
All folders listed are normally found in: "C:\Program Files\Stardock\ObjectDock" folder.
I wrote a mini tutorial on working with ObjectDock. It is geared more towards installing content correctly, but has images showing the folders in question. You can find it here Link
I hope this helps.
