Overview

The dialog is displayed when the Properties button is clicked in the Edit All Databases dialog, and no databases are selected in the list. It allows you to perform action on all of the defined databases at once.

 

Activate all

Activates all databases. When a database is active, it can store records of information as you analyze files in WinList.

 

De-activate all

Disables all databases. No database will store information until it is reactivated.

 

Delete files

Removes all database files on disks for databases in the Edit All Databases dialog. This is a convenient file management button, but should be used with great caution. Make sure you have adequate backup copies of important databases before using this option.

 

OK

Close the dialog and accept changes.

 

Cancel

Since the options in this dialog box are immediate, Cancel is the same as clicking OK.
