[QUOTE="infinite.loop, post: 326151, member: 10723"] When you uninstal MediaPortal it offers you to do a [B]clean un-installation[/B]. Do [B]NOT[/B] choose that if you want to re-use your userfiles. ;) The installation of a new MediaPortal version will rename [CODE]C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal[/CODE] to [CODE]C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal_backup_date[/CODE] So if you want to re-use your old userfiles, then just copy them back. :) Exactly the same happens to the "MediaPortal" folder in your installation directory [I](i.e. C:\Program Files\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal)[/I] If you want to re-use skins and plugins, just copy them back. But please be aware that this could always cause issues. :) [/QUOTE]
