Moving your data
From Nekoray
Throne cannot read Nekoray's configuration. Move your data by hand:
- In Nekoray, copy the URL of each subscription from its group settings. In Throne, press
Ctrl+Vand chooseCreate new subscription group. - Select the servers you added by hand in Nekoray, use
Server→Share→Copy links of selected, and pressCtrl+Vin Throne. - Set up routing again (Routing), and the settings you changed, such as the listen port, DNS servers and hotkeys.
Do not run Nekoray and Throne at the same time with TUN mode or the system proxy on.
From Throne 1.0.x
Throne 1.1.0 moved from Nekoray-style JSON files to a database (throne.db) and cannot read the old files: after an in-place update from 1.0.x, your profiles, groups and settings do not appear (#1765). Keep a copy of the old folder and move your data by hand as above; #1202 lists manual steps and an unofficial community script. Between newer versions, use Basic Settings → Backup and Restore (Backup, Updates & Migration).
From NekoBox for Android
Throne for Android 2.0.0, formerly NekoBox for Android, is rebuilt on the desktop core and cannot update an older version:
- It is signed with a new key, so uninstall the old version first.
- It restores only
.thrbackupfiles, including desktop backups, not the backups or WebDAV.zipfiles of version 1.6.x and older.
Before you uninstall, copy your subscription URLs and the share links of servers you added by hand, or restore a desktop backup on the phone instead (Backup, Updates & Migration). Details: Installation & Upgrade.
