ACC config files needed to save when doing a clean reinstall of PC.

[M. Sjöblom]

Hi!

I need to do a complete clean reinstall of my PC, to much crap on it after 6 yrs of gaming on it 😉
So I will obviously wipe out my entire ACC and all of its configuration files ... so my Q is where to find ALL those config files? Especially important is that I don't loose any trackmedals, ratings, and all the mappings to my wheel and pedal.
Done some googling but suprisingly I cant find any official source about how to preserve all settings when reinstallling a PC 🤔

I found some info on this thread (2 years old):
https://steamcommunity.com/app/805550/discussions/0/2967271684644066078/#c2967271684650740557

All configuration files can be found here:
C: \ Users \ *** \ Documents \ Assetto Corsa Competizione \ Config
Your saved CarSetup Files find here:
C: \ Users \ *** \ Documents \ Assetto Corsa Competizione \ Setups
saved Controls find here:
C: \ Users \ *** \ Documents \ Assetto Corsa Competizione \ Customs \ Controls

- Are those still the locations of ALL configfiles, and restoring those files will get my ACC back to current state?
- And there are no other files in the "steamapps" directories needed?

Can someone here help me out on this matter so I don't have to start from the beginning with my ACC 🙇‍♂️

Those are the folders still.

In the Customs folder you will also find your driver avatar configs (name, racing suit config, gloves config) in the Drivers folder (driver1.json) and any custom car color and numbering schemes you have set up in the Cars folder.

Your best bet is to backup the Config, Setups and Customs folders unless you have tons of custom liveries (in the Customs\Liveries folder) that take up too much space.

I believe the rankings and track medals are stored on Kunos servers.

Don't forget to back up any settings made to your wheel and pedals outside of ACC too.

Done the reset of PC and reinstalled ACC. All my previous configurations were preserved after restoring the files mentioned above 😎👍

If you have custom liveries or cars, then you also need to backup the Customs\Cars and Customs\liveries folders. Most, if not all, of the rating information is not stored locally and is handled server-side.
