    I need to reformat my C: due to a virus infection, before doing so, I was just wondering if there are files that I can backup so that I won't need to setup everything again after the formatting. :confused:
    (my charts, data, hot keys, .. the list goes on, just the thought of having to adjust everything to norm is driving me nuts :(!

    Are there such a file from the TWS and MQT folders?

    Any help is appreciated

    For complete TWS recovery you can make a copy of the JTS folder. (It's about 5MB) or if this is to much just copy the setting files.

    All your settings are in a subfolder. You can look for [.lyt] files
    hotkeys.lyt
    layout.lyt
    etc

    Hope this helps
