I am about to rebuild my HTPC and am going through a backup process.  For MC17, where are the config files stored?  I know where the library is but there must be other files holding all of the options selected.  Is it the stuff in User/Appdata/Roaming/J River/Media Center 17/?  If I back this up then replace it after the rebuild, will I have everything as before?

There is nothing in the wiki on this.  It might be a useful new topic.

Library Backup will contain all of your configurations. JRiver stores the config in registry, so you CAN export this. But it's not recommended. It might ** up if you get a newer version and import an old reg file. The backup should work very well. backup always contains the config, but you can select whether to restore it or not.

Many thanks, MrHaugen.

I have done the rebuild and the library backup worked perfectly. My library and all my configs seem to be intact.  It's a bit of a nerve wracking process but now I can enjoy my media again.

I used to always do it manually, but then I learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Backup.
