Restore MMW data after re-installing windows

[DannyDeLoach]

I have MMW 4.1.1.1703. I had to wipe my hard drive and re-install Windows. Now that I have re-installed MMW, how do I transfer playlists, ratings, etc. to the new installation? I created a backup up image of my old hard drive. So, I have access to the previous MMW database and ini files. I just don't know how to properly get the information from this files into the new installation. Also, all the music files are on a separate partition. So, their file paths are un-changed. Thanks for any advice.

Just take the database (MM.DB) to the new install: http://www.mediamonkey.com/wiki/index.p ... w_computer

Thanks, lowlander. One thing that is a bit confusing to me from the 'Moving MM...' wiki is how to open the old MM.db database in the new installation of MediaMonkey. One section of the wiki says to copy the MM.db file to the new computer, but it does not say how to make MediaMonkey open that old database, instead of a newly created database.

You copy the old database to where the new database is (replacing it). Then you start MediaMonkey and it will be used.

Great, thanks.
