# Save or Export Workspace/Tool

You can save and export your workspace or tool to load and use them in other PCs.

## Save Workspace

By expanding the Workspaces window, you will see a list of the workspaces associated with the VisionPro Deep Learning software. There are color-coded icons that denote that state of the workspace:

- Orange indicates that there are pending changes that need to be saved.
- Green indicates that there are no pending changes and the workspace has been saved.
- Grey indicates that the workspace is closed.
- A blinking icon indicates that the workspace is busy.

Note: You must save a workspace before you exit the application. By default, the VisionPro Deep Learning software is performing an auto-save every 5 seconds.

## Export Workspace

2. This will open the Export Workspace dialog, where you can specify a location to store the Deep Learning Workspace Archive (.vwsa) file.

   Note: Export workspace in .vwsa format to load it in parameter search. For more details, see Workspace, Stream, Tool .
