Settings after drive corruption. #194

Closed SaiMorphX closed 1 month ago

SaiMorphX commented 1 month ago

I'm trying to figure out where windhawk saves mod settings. I recently tried to upgrade my cpu but got a faulty one, and it corrupted the boot loader, so I installed windows on another drive and can retrieve files from the other drive for now. BUT WHERE!!! If I recall I had only 2 mods, and only one was really used, but I'd like to get those settings so I don't have to try and recreate them.

Thanks for any help with this.

I found it looking in the software hive file. This really makes moving this from system to system, a give up on windhawk task. signal rgb, I could move my files over.... .... I loved windhawk, maybe I can setup some generic junk, and copy this over.

Mod settings can be found in:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Windhawk\Engine\Mods\<mod-id>\Settings

If what you need is settings, the easiest way to migrate would be to install the three mods, and then copy the settings from the Settings registry key.

The cache entry in LocalSettings in your screenshot isn't necessary, it will be recreated automatically by Windhawk.

Thank you! sucks I tried to just export them to a reg file and install them to the register, but when I started Windhawk again they were all still set at default.

Hey, at least I have the information!

As far as I understand, you managed to get it working, or at least have the necessary info. I'm closing the issue. If you need more help, feel free to follow up.
