Win 8 Will installer find pre-existing files ?

Hi,

I need to move my installation of PR to my Windows 8 due to Creative X-Fi MB3 no longer working in Windows 10.

If I copy all the files across then will the PR launcher find all the files and add registry entries and this kind of thing. Cheers.

Yes, that should work. One note tho: We do not support Windows 8, but I am sure you would use Windows 8.1?

Yes, thanks, it's 8.1.

I had to copy across the PR folder in Documents to get settings and profiles and the launcher starts OK.
