I thank you gentlemen.
Actually, when I do a "fresh" install I too have a "pristine" version of SH4 updated to v1.5 in a separate folder on my E: drive, although I never thought of zipping it to save space. I delete the SH4 folder from My Documents as previously stated, then delete the Silent_Hunter_IV live game folder from my D:\Games\Ubisoft folder, and then copy the pristine version directly to that folder. As you say, it is faster by far than having to reload the game by installing from disk or wherever. I then set up the JSGME, run LAA and add the FOTRSU version and go.
I was just wanting to make sure the copy approach was ok as compared to the uninstall/reinstall process. Thanks for clarifying.
