Reinstalling our software

Choose your operating system for reinstall instructions.

Windows

You should not lose any of your settings if you reinstall to the same directory.

That said, we recommend that you make a backup copy of your settings and player notes files. Their filenames are:

  • Settings file: user.ini or user
  • Player notes: notes.user.xml (where 'user' is your username)

The player notes file is only present if you have saved notes or labels on other players at the poker tables. If you don't take notes on players, just save a copy of your settings file.

How do I backup my files?

Open our software (if possible) and go to 'Help' → 'Open My Settings Folder'.

Find the file(s) and copy them to a safe temporary location.

Locate the user file in our software

If you can't open the software, you'll need to manually navigate to the settings folder to locate the file(s):

  1. Press the 'Windows Key' + 'R' (at the same time).
  2. Type or copy/paste the text below into the area provided and press 'Enter':
    %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local
  3. Find and open our software's folder.
  4. Look for 'user.ini' or 'user' and 'notes.user.xml' (where applicable)
  5. Copy the file(s) to a safe temporary location (the desktop is a good choice)

Once you have made a copy of those files, uninstall our software.
