Uninstall and reinstall Emby w/o losing settings?

If I uninstall and the reinstall Emby sever in place, will it retain all its settings?

 

My media server won't sleep or enter energy-saving mode. I want to debug by uninstalling applications to hopefully find the problem. While I don't think Emby is to blame, I want to uninstall to be sure. But I'd rather not lose all my settings and custom artwork and redo my configuration.

Ok. I'll definitely try that to start. (I didn't know if Emby relied on any windows support packages -- the VIsual Studio runtimes -- that might continue running in the background even if the server is quit. I was thinking of uninstalling the runtimes -- I've got a dozen versions from trying various HTPC programs and don't know what is detritus on my pc. )

To answer your original question, if you don't select "Remove all traces" then your configuration will stay intact.
