  • To create or modify the QuestSoftware.ToadSecurity table to enable Toad Security, the user who maintains this table must have privileges to create, insert, update, and delete it. All other users need only the ability to read the QuestSoftware.ToadSecurity table to use Toad Security features.

 

Install Toad

Note: Your Toad for SAP Solutions license key determines the edition and will enable Toad for SAP Solutions functionality accordingly. In many cases, if functionality is disabled within Toad for SAP Solutions, you may not have an appropriate license to use it. When Toad is running, you can see which components are licensed by selecting Help | About.

To install Toad

  1. Run the Installer.
  2. Accept the License Agreement.

  3. Select the products you want to install and click Install.

Note: Check Prohibit saving passwords during the installation to prohibit users from saving their passwords in Toad.

Specify App Data Directory Location

Toad for SAP Solutions 4.2 stores settings files in the user's Application Data directory. The default location cannot be modified from within the application. Toad provides two methods to change the default location: by using a Registry setting or by using a command switch in a Toad shortcut.

Use the Registry setting method to change the application data directory from Roaming to Local. Use the command switch method to change the location to any new path.

To change Toad Application Data directory location from Roaming to Local

In the Registry under Toad for SAP Solutions (Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Quest Software\Toad for SAP Solutions\ 4.2), add LOCALSETTINGS with a value of 1.

See the following table for default (Roaming) and resulting (Local) directory path.

Caution: All current Toad settings will be lost after applying this Registry setting unless you manually copy the settings files from the default location (Roaming directory) to the new location (Local directory). Copy the settings files BEFORE you add the Registry setting and BEFORE opening Toad.

Operating System

Default Location New Location when
LOCALSETTINGS = 1

Windows Server 2008

Windows 7

Windows 8

Windows 10

Windows 11

C:\Users\username\ AppData\Roaming\Quest Software\Toad for SAP Solutions 4.2

C:\Users\username\ AppData\Local\Quest Software\ Toad for SAP Solutions 4.2

To change Toad Application Data directory location using a command-line switch

You can override the default Application Data directory by running Toad with the command switch:

Toad.exe --datadir="YourNewDirPath"

To instruct Toad to always use the new directory path, add the command switch and the new directory path to a Toad desktop shortcut. Then use the desktop shortcut when opening Toad.

  1. To add the command switch, right-click the Toad shortcut and select Properties.
  2. Enter the command switch and add the directory path in quotes (replace "YourNewDirPath" with your directory path).
