deanhatescoffee 11 Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 I have MB set up on my PC currently. I'm contemplating a clean installation of Windows but I'm wondering what special steps to take, if any, to re-set up MB? I know the extra downloaded media info (like box art, etc) will stay with my media files on my external hard drive and I'll need to reinstall the server, etc, but I want to make sure there aren't any other special steps I should take.

elshagon 44 Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 when I did it I copied over the server folders and then put them back to get all my settings back to where I left them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanhatescoffee 11 Posted April 21, 2014 Author Share Posted April 21, 2014 Great idea. Would it be as simple as reinstalling MediaBrowser and then copying MediaBrowser-Server and MediaBrowser-Theater back into C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming ? Are there any other folders that I should back up as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elshagon 44 Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 I think I only copied the server folders and not the MB Theater folders. Here's the thread from when I was asking a few ??? : http://mediabrowser.tv/community/index.php?/topic/4806-save-server-settings/&do=findComment&comment=71777 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A8HTPC 38 Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Maybe there should be a "Backup" option in MBS and MBT? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanhatescoffee 11 Posted April 24, 2014 Author Share Posted April 24, 2014 Well, I copied the -Server and -Theater folders and everything works just like it did before. Awesome! A backup option would be cool, but this works too. It would be useful in an FAQ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
