paradox64 Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 Hello What is the best practice method if you prefer to reinstall Windows 10 during each major os update ? I use a dedicated os for DCS that I want clean and lighter as possible and I know it... it will start to get excited ^^ So I will do something and prepare myself to upgrade to spring update. So I take the risk by asking this question... lol If I copy all EA folders, is there a way to save activation keys and reinsert them in the new os registry (on the same machine obviously) ?

ED Team BIGNEWY Posted May 17, 2018 ED Team Share Posted May 17, 2018 Just deactivate any modules that are still using starforce before doing the OS change, and make sure you are not in offline mode.

paradox64 Posted May 17, 2018 Author Share Posted May 17, 2018 Yes this is what I actually do, but I would like to know if maybe there is a way without deactivate them. I think it could be cause it's absolute same hardware (but not same sid it's true).Just deactivate any modules that are still using starforce before doing the OS change, and make sure you are not in offline mode.

ED Team BIGNEWY Posted May 17, 2018 ED Team Share Posted May 17, 2018 not possible if you are changing the OS, the registry will be deleted and all stored activation data also your hardwareID will change Forum rules - DCS Crashing?
