Hey everyone,
A quick question here:
I have my operating system on one hard drive, and the vast majority of my games on a secondary drive.
If I format the OS drive, and install a clean version of windows, will I need to manually reinstall every game?
I know that nothing will happen to the files themselves on the game drive, but won't the pointers in the registry and some other system files that are used to run the games, be cleared? Won't this mean that i have to reinstall the games so that those pointers are created again and the game can run?
If so, is there any way around this? Because I would really like to not have to install every game, and ensure that its save info is carried over safely.
Thanks in advance!
