Exporting an OmniPass User Profile

To export a user, open the OmniPass Control Center,

and click Import/Export User under Manage Users.

Click Exports an OmniPass user profile. OmniPass will

prompt you to authenticate. Upon successfully authenti-

cation, you must name the OmniPass user profile and

decide where to save it. An .opi file is generated, and you

should store a copy of it in a safe place.

This .opi file contains all your user specific OmniPass

data, and it is both encrypted and password protected.

This user profile does NOT contain any of your

encrypted data files.

Importing an OmniPass User Profile

To import an OmniPass user open the OmniPass

Control Center, and click Import/Export User under

Manage Users. Click Imports a new user into OmniPass

and then select OmniPass Import/Export File (*.opi)

and click Next. OmniPass will then prompt you to

browse for the file you had previously exported (.opi

file). When you select the .opi file for importation,

OmniPass will prompt you for authentication. The

credentials that will allow a user profile to be imported

are the Windows login credentials of the exported user.

They are the credentials that had to be submitted when

the user profile was exported. You will need User Name,

Password, and Domain. If you don’t remember the value

for Domain, in a PC or SOHO environment Domain

should be your computer name.

OmniPass will notify you if the user was successfully

imported.

Things to Know Regarding Import/Export

■

Assume you export a local Windows User profile from

OmniPass. You want to import that profile to another

machine that has OmniPass. Before you can import

the profile, a Windows user with the same login cre-

dentials must be created on the machine importing the

profile.

Example: I have a Windows user with the username

“Tom” and the password “Sunshine” on my system. I

have enrolled Tom into OmniPass and remembered

passwords. I want to take all my passwords to new sys-

tem. I export Tom’s OmniPass user profile. I go to my

new system and using the Control Panel I create a user

with the username "Tom" and the password "Sun-

shine". I can now successfully import the OmniPass

user data to the new system.

■

If you export an OmniPass-only user, you can import

that user to any computer running OmniPass, pro-

vided that a user with that name is not already

enrolled in OmniPass.

■

If you attempt to import a user profile who has the

same name as a user already enrolled in OmniPass, the

OmniPass import function will fail.

OMNIPASS CONTROL CENTER

This section will serve to explain functions within the

OmniPass Control Center that weren’t explained earlier.

You can access the OmniPass Control Center any of

three ways:

■

Double-click the golden OmniPass key shaped icon in

the Windows taskbar (typically in the lower-right cor-

ner of the desktop)

■

Click the Start button; select the Programs group;

select the Softex program group; and click the

OmniPass Control Center selection.

■

Open the Windows Control Panel (accessible via Start

button --> Settings --> Control Panel) and double-

click the Softex OmniPass icon.

User Management

The User Management tab has two major interfaces:

Add/Remove User and Import/Export User. Import/

Export User functionality is documented in “Exporting

and Importing Users” on page 107. Add/Remove User

functionality is straightforward.

If you click Adds a new user to OmniPass you will start

the OmniPass Enrollment Wizard. The Enrollment

Wizard is documented in “User Enrollment” on

page 104.

If you click Removes a user from OmniPass, OmniPass

will prompt you to authenticate. Authenticate with the

credentials (or enrolled fingerprint) of the user you wish

to remove. OmniPass will prompt you to confirm user

removal. Click OK to complete user removal

User Settings

The User Settings tab has four interfaces: Audio Settings,

Tas kb ar Tip s, and Enrollment. User settings allow users

to customize OmniPass to suit their individual prefer-

ences. Under User Settings (Audio Settings and Ta sk b ar

Tips) you can set how OmniPass notifies the user of

OmniPass events (e.g., successful login, access denied,

You cannot import a user into OmniPass if

there already is a user with the same name

enrolled in OmniPass.

Removing a user will automatically destroy

all OmniPass data associated with that

user. All identities and credentials

associated with the user will be lost.

If you are sure about removing the user,

we recommend you export the user

profile.
