Evening folks,

I've just completed the (marathon) scrape of the compendium and it all looks like it's been imported into Hero Lab. Which files do I have to backup to avoid having to go through the immense pain of doing that again if something horrible happens to my computer and I have to install everything again?

As an initial measure I've copied everything with the file name ddi_*.* somewhere safe. Is that enough or are there other files that need to be saved somewhere?

Cheers,

Ash

It's simplest to just back up the whole "4e" folder under c:\HeroLab\data. If you need to move it to a different computer, you can just copy that folder to the new PC under your new HeroLab\data folder, and everything should work great.

Hope this helps!
