Hello,

I have a few suggestions in order to simplify and/or extend this project.

1. Provide patched .jd2backup file with default settings

The whole installation process consists in creating a settings backup, patching the backup file, then importing the backup file.
This process is identical for all installations.
Therefore, it is possible to directly provide the patched .jd2backup file so that people can import it directly.
Of course, this implies that eventually changed settings will be reset.

2. Provide automated patch script

In order to keep simplifying the process without forcibly resetting the user's settings, why not creating a patch script that will automatically call JDownloader's export function, then automatically patch the generated backup file, and finally automatically call JDownloader's import function.

3. Create a custom patch generator

In order to extend the project's capabilities, we could create a customization software which could automatically generate patched .jd2backup, allowing the user to graphically (without manual file manipulation) change whatever it is easy and non-risky to change (for example : progress bar color).

Thanks
