Thanks Theirry,
I haven't thought of the export/import options on the connection recently - I'm sure I tried them before and they didn't do anything helpful, so perhaps that was an earlier version of RDP.
I just had a play with them, and it was a bit of work but I managed to copy my old filters from my old not-so-healthy workspace. (In case anyone else tries, I make extensive use of filter pools in my connections and it appears that only the default filter pool is exported.)
-Paul.

It would be nice to have a way of copying over the RSE properties and filters when creating a workspace, which would mean creating a new workspace isn't so much effort...
Preferences can be exported then imported. From File/export, it's in the General category.
Connections and filters are in the
[workspace]/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.rse.core/profiles directory which can be copied from the old workspace to the new one.
I don't know when that option reappeared but Connections and their filters can also be exported/imported in 8.5.1 from the context menu.
(I just tried it and it looks like you need to create a dummy connection to have the import option appear.)
Have a nice day.
Thierry
