Is there a way to save the icons on the dock (save the theme)?

Is there a way to save the icons on the dock (save the theme)? There was a way to save it in version one. I upgraded from ObjectDock v1 to v2 in November 2016. Thank you

This shows how to back up the settings:

It doesn't backup the actual icon image files, you would want to do that separately.  It backs up the files that tell Object Dock where to find the icon image files.

Thank you. Once I got in that folder, wasn't sure what to do with it. I was hoping there was a way to do it like before =SAVE THEME AS- and you just typed a name and that was it. I hope they will add this option. Seems like ObjectDock is going backwards in some areas. That was an important simple feature as I change my desktop theme quite often. It may be a deal breaker. I wonder if a previous version will work with Windows 10? I really didn't want to switch to a different dock after buying ObjectDock but.....     Thanks again!

Also how do you reload that theme?

Copy the configuration files back over to the original folder.  You would probably need to exit Object Dock, copy the files back over, then restart Object Dock.

So the new update gives us a lot of steps in order to save and reapply a theme? What's the point then? It was much easier before to click a button and save the theme and then just as easy to reapply it later. It may be a deal breaker for me as I have tons of themes saved just the way I like them. I have Windows 10 so can you tell me if I can go back to ObjectDock Plus 1.9 or whatever the previous version was? I really do love ObjectDock and maybe in a future release they can bring this feature back.

Version 1.9 hasn't been supported or updated in years and I'm afraid I have no idea what it might do on Win10.  Sorry.
