How nice...and chocolate, my favorite! Me thinks you might be missing a few candles...but my wife might agree that I act like I'm 5 rather frequently.

No - i have done it and recently when my laptop broker I used back ups to move to an old one, and then again to move back when the proper one was repaired.

Are you referring to a full PC backup or just the backup of the localstate folder?

Back up of the local state folder each time. Back up that folder to a standalone media such as a memory key, install the game on the new machine play a couple of levels then close the game and copy the saved local state over the new one the game created and Bingo, all working. Think I should state that there are references on here to games being blocked for using backup rather than the official GI game restore code method, but as a method it does work.

I have used it long ago and have kept backups though have not needed them. Am considering a new PC but have never tried to transfer my whole pc myself hence needed clarification re moving my game so I don't lose it.Thanks.
