Title: How to or guide to back up and reinstall MC?
Post by: aranut on October 29, 2009, 05:36:54 pm

Getting ready to upgrade Windows 7 RC to Windows 7 which is going to require a reinstall.

Being new to MC I'm not sure of the proper procedure, etc. to backup, reinstall MC. My
music library is on a second drive so I'm not concerned about it, but I don't want to
lose the database, tags, settings, etc. Any how to, instructions, recommended guidelines
available on the proper way to backup, reinstall, and restore MC?

Thanks,

I'm not the one to answer your question but with all the people who plan to upgrade to Windows 7 over the coming years it might be a good idea to have a detailed method for upgrading and post it on the Wiki too.
