    I have a pretty unique situation here. My desktop came with Windows 11, I moved it to Windows 10, then back to Windows 11, and now I am going BACK TO WINDOWS 10. I'm going to do a backup of my FILES, not PROGRAMS, and then perform a clean install of Windows 10, and then unload the backup (about 500GB of data) to Windows 10. I will also reinstall BeamNG.drive. I spend a long time configuring vehicles in the game's vehicle config menu, and so do the other users of my computer. Some of the configs even go back years. What I want to know is will I be able to save the configurations for my vehicles after going back to Windows 10?
    If not, is there any way I can save them to a drive or something?

    Thanks in advance, and sorry if this thread didn't make sense. I'm days away from finishing backing up my data and getting to install Windows 10 and I just thought of this now.

    Your configurations are saved in Userfolder/BeamNG.drive/0.27/vehicles/(vehiclenames)... so I think it will work if you keep this vehicle folder and just put it back into your new install. Can someone please click "agree" if I´m suggesting the right thing?

    Keep the vehicles folder?
    Ok, I think that makes sense. I'll just save the folder to a drive and put it on the fresh install. Thanks!
