Hi, I gotta reformat my PC and I want to keep my hands. Question, when you do the backup does it backup all ur hands from the database you have or not ? Do I need to export all the hands aswell or just backup is enough ?

The original hands go to the archive folder (default c:\hmarchive). You should copy this folder and additionally you should create a backup of the database:

I formatted the pc and the correct answer for my question is,
its enough to backup, no need to export any files, as backup will save them all, its shitloads faster then exporting hands aswell. the backup tool rocks

But you should always save the original handhistory files as a 2nd level backup
