Snapshots
MAMP PRO offers you, via the snapshots, the possibility to create a snapshot of a host (files & databases) quickly and easily. Snapshots are not bound to a specific installation of MAMP PRO. This means that you can also pass on snapshots to other users of MAMP PRO (Mac). It is not intended to share snapshots between the Mac version and the Windows version of MAMP PRO.
