Where are the key files stored?
« on: April 27, 2013, 08:10:58 pm »
Every time I Install and activate FSDT sceneries, it tells me to back up my key file but it doesn't tell me where it is saved.

Where is it?

No, it doesn't tell you have to make a backup of the key file.

It tells you the Addon Manager has made a backup for you, in .REG file in your Home folder. Your Home folder is the folder with your name, which contains "My Documents", "My Pictures", etc...that's a folder that you normally have to backup anyway.

However, the .REG is not really needed to reinstall. Its one and only purpose is to save you from *manually* typing the Serial Number, if you lose the .REG file, you just have to type the Serial Number manually when reactivating on a new system, that's it.
