BiBa Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 I'm in the process of expanding the drive and need to replace the 1TB SSD with a 4TB. Will the certificates of my modules be affected? What do I have to do beforehand? Many Thanks in Advance BiBa...............BigBang WIN 11-64 Pro. MoBo: ASUS ROG STRIX Z390-F GAMING. SSD: LEXAR 790 4TB. CPU: Intel Core i9-9900K.

No, DCS nowadays employs a key-less copy-protection scheme, you only need to remember your user credentials and password. 16 minutes ago, BiBa said: What do I have to do beforehand? You could backup the DCS program folder, so that you can restore it later on your new drive and thus avoid a long re-download of the software. You MUST backup your /Saved Games/DCS World/ folder, as it contains your settings, control bindings, custom liveries and missions, and your Campaign status.

Good to know - thanks You could backup the DCS program folder, so that you can restore it later on your new drive and thus avoid a long re-download of the software. You MUST backup your /Saved Games/DCS World/ folder, as it contains your settings, control bindings, custom liveries and missions, and your Campaign status. The whole Operating system and content will migrate to the new drive anyway including DCS Saved Games folder BiBa...............BigBang WIN 11-64 Pro. MoBo: ASUS ROG STRIX Z390-F GAMING.
