I've just reformatted my PC (actually I have a new mobo and CPU too).

I want to transfer as much of my settings across onto the new PC as I can.

What files do I need to put into the new installation?

before I formatted, i copied the whole devnz folder across onto the other drive.

If the program was working fine, you can just install the exact same version as you were running (after stopping recording service, tray app etc) and be back in business within 5 minutes.

To ensure your recordings are kept (if you have any left) then you need to re-create the directory structure you had for them previously (I assume they are on another drive anyway?)

The recording service will look for your exisitng recordings based on your database and if it doesn't see them will remove from the db. (you can disable this check though)

I did this whole procedure over the weekend, and everything was exactly how I had it configured prior to format / OS install.
