Is there any way to keep the media library information ?

I purchased PowerDVD 19 Ultra and added several folders to the media library. It took hours to finish. The issue is that I have to restore Windows 10 from an old back up which doesn't have PowerDVD 19 yet.
In that case, is there a way to back up the media library data/information so I can restore it after I restore the OS ? I'm not sure what is done while importing media library folders, but I'd like to skip it next time to save hours.

I remembered that there is no perfect or automatic solutions for that.

Try this and check if it does the trick:
1. Copy the PowerDVD19 folder at the following path to other folders that will not be touched by Windows restore:
C:\Users\your name\AppData\Local\CyberLink\PowerDVD19
2. Reinstall powerdvd after Windows restore.
3. Replace the new created folder with the old folder that you backed up previously.


You can test the steps in advance before you actually reinstall Windows.

I recovered my personal settings once using this alternative way, but it is not a formal method and might cause more bugs.
If your powerdvd got screwed, you have to reinstall it and restart everything from scratch.
