### How to share your Templates with other traders

{% hint style="success" %}
You can share your templates with other Quantower traders by sharing template files with them. Template files can be found in the folder **"Quantower -> Settings -> Templates"**

The file to be transferred must be placed in a similar folder on another computer
{% endhint %}

Recall that in the Quantower platform, all created templates are stored in the Control Center sidebar in the **"Templates"** group. Thus, you can launch any template from this location at any time with a single click. You can place your saved templates in the Favorites panel in the Control Center, just like any other default panel.
