Reinstall of Windows - Lightroom Reinstall?

[Mel_P]

Hello

I have Lightroom 4 installed on my Windows 7 HP PC. I may have to reinstall windows because it the Windows Update process seems "broken".

My images are all on 2 separate drives (1x1TB, 1x3TB) and windows is on an SSD. The catalogue is on the C-drive with the backup catalogue on another 1x1TB drive. What files do I need to copy to ensure LR gets up and running with all of my edits to my CR2 files?

Thanks, Mel

once you have done the reinstall of windows, make sure your image drives have the same drive letters as before and then just open up your backed up catalogue.

its that simple.
