Maintaining configuration files

Synergetic configuration files contain a list of all the internal settings that determine the way that:

• Synergetic works
• other newer software works, such as the Community Portal.

Important: Never alter configuration files unless you know the full implications of doing so. Changes to these values can cause systemwide changes for all users.
