Title: How to keep my library when I restore my pc via Norton Ghost? (with ISO file)
Post by: vvcepheus7 on April 25, 2011, 05:26:03 am

Hi,

I use a ISO file for restore my pc occasionally (via norton ghost). So I would like to keep my library whenever recovery my pc.
For itunes If I change the directory of music of windows to another hard disk location (different of C:) the problem is solved. But for MC I observe that the data program directory is in here:

C:\Users\USER\AppData\Roaming\J River

So, what way I could to move J River directory to another different directory in another hard disk to save the changes to the library? I need do it for keep the library of mc when I recovery my disk using norton ghost!

Sorry for my English, I'm Spanish speaker :P

Any solution?

Thank you

You can 1) backup your library, then 2) create a new library on D: or whatever, then 3) restore the library backup created in step 1.
