I'm going to reinstall the OS on one of our computers, but usually when I've done it before, it's just a clean slate with programs. I don't usually try to save setting and game saves (unless the games were installed on flash drives and ran from those.

This time I do have a couple games, namely Chuzzle and Bejeweled 2, which I want to save the profiles and scores for me and my family. So which files and folders should I save, and then put back in when everythings reinstalled?

Plus I downloaded Bejeweled 2 from the free October 10 offer. I saved the exe file and the receipt with the registration code. Would I just need to use those again when reinstalling the game, or would I need to buy another copy?

For system clarification, I'm running Windows XP on a desktop.



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.
