Archiving and Clearing XE-Filter Results
XE-Filter Documentation
|
|
|
XE-Filter's
statistical results are stored in an XML file that is easily
archived by copying it to another location. Clearing statistics
held in this XML file is done by issuing a reset command.
Archiving and
clearing of the XE-Filter XML file can be done automatically by
scheduling times set in the native
Windows Scheduled Tasks.
