MC10 Question Re: Backup/Restoring Library
« on: November 04, 2005, 04:40:35 pm »

I've recently had to rebuild my HDD with XPsp2, reinstall MC10 and restore a backup of my library.  Before rebuilding my HDD, I made a backup of my library thru the File/Libary/Backup Library feature of MC.  In addition, I also backed-up the entire JRiver file directory off my HDD.

This is my first time restoring a library.  My songs were successfully restored but I discovered that my skins, playlists and previously downloaded "track info" templates weren't included as part of the backup.

My question is, how in the future can I restore previously downloaded skins, playlists and track info templates to avoid the ardous task of redownloading them?  Is there the possibility that I can just transfer/overwrite the existing JRiver file directories with my backup copy of these (3) items or will I run into registry problems doing it this way?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated,

ballen   ;)

You would have to back up the following folders inside MC's Folder

MegaSkins
MiniSkins
Visualizations.

When you reinstall MC, you can overwrite these.
