You can do it with only a few mouse clicks.
Open a clean chart, apply all your favourite studies, right click it, and save is as your default template.
The next time whenever you open a new chart, the default template will be applied.

Thanks Roy that solved my problem!
But now I'm curious about what's really going on.
Although your trick works very well; I think the data directories are
normally off limit to users.
The only other way would be to individually open each chart, apply a
template and then save it.

I guess nobody is interested in the exact details so I try to keep it
short.
I have several sets of data. Ranging from 8000 to 50 stocks.
They are all organized in different sets of 'Favorites'
Favorites are just links to the full and original 'database'
Deleting the MSSmart folders cleared out the templates for all
favorite sets. But how to act if I want every favorite set to use a
different template?
If I understand how MSsmart works that's not possible.
It's also impossible to apply a new template to 500 stocks with a few
mouse clicks.
Now the question is; A'm a right?
It wouldn't be the 1st time that I've read a tip in this list that
saved me 1000 mouseclick per day :-)



Thanks to all who responded!
