WebDrive stores its configuration and site information in the Windows registry. This makes it easy to export these settings into a registry file that can be quickly imported on another computer. The settings can be exported using WebDrive from the File Menu; or by using the Windows registry utility, Regedit.

WebDrive uses two primary keys. Settings that are global to all NT users and the WebDrive application are stored under the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE registry key. Site information and settings that a user would configure in the WebDrive application are stored under HKEY_CURRENT_USER. This key contains settings that each NT user on the target system can customize to meet their own needs. For example, one NT user may want to define a site to his own personal web server, while another NT user will have different external FTP sites that they would like to connect to with WebDrive. The table below describes the primary keys used to configure WebDrive.

In addition to the keys noted above, additional information is written to other registry keys by Windows based on different features that WebDrive will use as it interacts with the shell. The primary area relates to persistent drive mappings that are configured when you select the connect at login/startup option from the WebDrive Site Manager. When this option is selected, Windows records it under the HKEY_Current_User\Network registry key.
