phantommaggotxxx Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 My steam folder is seperate from program files.Can I just take my MO file and my steam file and move it, then move it back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obobski Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 No experience whatsoever with MO, but yes you can drag'and'drop Steam folders from machine to machine. Just re-install Steam on the new machine (you can't "clone" the installation as far as I know), and then point that install at the "old" folder and it should work. I would guess MO would just need to be re-installed and pointed at the folder too, just as NMM, Wrye, FOMM, etc have worked for years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

obobski Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Savegames are separate from the Steam folder, and can be easily backed up (they're located in My Documents). As long as the game has the same mods installed, savegames should work machine-to-machine or install-to-install, so if that's your primary concern then I would just backup your saves and you should be set (assuming you're going to re-install all the same mods and so forth).
