uscstaylor Posted September 15, 2018 Posted September 15, 2018 Hey Guys I was wondering about all these backup folders. Can I get rid of all of them except maybe the last one... Hers a pic
Buzzles Posted September 16, 2018 Posted September 16, 2018 (edited) Yes. Delete them all. They're only there for the DCS installer to shove files that have been modified in to when they didn't match the expected file (aka, you've tweaked them yourself). You can clear out the contents of _downloads too if you want some more space. Edited September 16, 2018 by Buzzles Fancy trying Star Citizen? Click here!
Grimes Posted September 16, 2018 Posted September 16, 2018 Yeah. You can. Basically whenever the game updates it checks all of the files, if a given file is modified then it will download the correct version. The old file gets moved to the backup folder. That is why it is recommended to remove mods before an update. The right man in the wrong place makes all the difference in the world.
