System Options
This page displays the software version information, and also the various folders on your computer, only some of which are used by the software.
Reload Config Data
Your software stores some configuration data locally on the PC. This stored configuration data is renewed once per week from the server and in the meantime is used to help speed up the operation of the software by reducing the network traffic. Occasionally this data may become out of date due to a software upgrade and this option clears out the stored data and restarts the software to download fresh data. Under normal circumstances you will not need to take this option.
