In general I just move/backup the whole GW folder. |

Ditto. The .dat file is the big part, and the rest of the folder is so tiny in comparison you may as well just keep the whole lot. That way you'll definitely not miss anything...

odd....just finished transfering the files and when i try to start GW it says:
"Unable To Open Archive File Guild Wars is unable to acess its archive file C:\Program Files\Guild Wars\GW.dat. Please verify that this file is accessible and writable, and that no other program is currently using it." tried restarting and have checked file permission, any ideas? thanks Dark -edit: nevermind need to run as admin thanks all for the help Last edited by Dark Dragon; Jul 20, 2007 at 06:00 PM // 18:00.. |
