Thor VM3 with Microsoft Windows Embedded Compact 7 User Guide
ddf files - These files contain the factory default values for the software. These files
are placed on the Thor VM3 when the applicable software was installed or upgraded.
Use this option if you wish to start a configuration settings file based on the factory
defaults.
ccf files - These files contain the modified values for the software settings. These files
are created with the CCU . ccf files are encrypted for security. Once a ccf file is created
on one Thor VM3 it can be copied to other Thor VM3s to duplicate the configuration.
An existing ccf file can be opened, modified, applied to the Thor VM3, saved, saved
with a different name, etc.
If a ccf file was opened, it is saved with the same name and in the same location.
If a ddf file was opened, a prompt is displayed for the name to assign to the new ccf
file. By default a new file is saved at \System\DDF though a different location can be
specified.
