    Which files to save and how to proceed to restore the settings when you reinstall Windows?

    If I replace the SimBin folder in the Documents folder, RRRE creates a new folder.

    I had the same issue after changing the path of the game.
    Every time i started the game it created a new profile folder under C:\Users\<username>\Documents\My Games\SimBin (e.g. C:\Users\<username>\Documents\My Games\SimBin\RaceRoom Racing Experience 2).

    When this directory is created there is a file called "GameInstallDir.ini" in C:\Users\<username>\Documents\My Games\SimBin\RaceRoom Racing Experience 2.
    - Open the file with notepad and copy the content of the file to the original location of your pfofile (e.g. C:\Users\<username>\Documents\My Games\SimBin\RaceRoom Racing Experience\GameInstallDir.ini)
    - Remove the Folder "RaceRoom Racing Experience 2"
    - Start the game

    Now you should have your old profile and settings loaded.
