Presets are easy to share with colleagues who use another TaskForce via a simple export\/import.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TaskForce has two pre-existing presets: <em>Default<\/em>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<em>Damaged<\/em>,&nbsp;recommended for healthy and faulty drives respectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sharing presets for the same TaskForce<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Unlike the previous versions of our soft, the functionality of TaskForce 2021.4 onwards includes the autosave of adjusted imaging settings locally, in the Chrome browser. Such locally saved presets are only available on the current workstation but not to other users operating the same TaskForce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To create a custom preset that can be shared with your colleagues who use the same TaskForce, adjust the imaging settings and proceed to save them: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li>Click the three-dot icon in the bottom right corner and click&nbsp;<em>Save to<\/em><\/li><li>In the pop-up window, type in the name of the preset and click&nbsp;<em>Save<\/em><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large atola-shadow\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"2736\" height=\"1824\" src=\"https:\/\/atola.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/presets-saving.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5764\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The saved presets are stored in TaskForce&#8217;s Work Folder. They are easy to find by other users of the same imager under the&nbsp;<em>Custom<\/em>&nbsp;button. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There you can also find the locally saved presets next to the ones you saved in the Work Folder. This is because your Chrome browser is set up to store presets locally for you not to lose them. If redundant, they can be easily deleted from the list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large atola-shadow\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"2736\" height=\"1824\" src=\"https:\/\/atola.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/presets-custom.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5770\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>A local copy of each custom preset is saved on the user&#8217;s workstation.
