I have to do a re-install of my TWGS. What the easiest way to back up my codes? is there a file that contains the codes I can simply move? or do I just do the old fashioned method of copy and paste?

Thanks in advance

I copy all my reg code wheather it be for TWGS or any game i have into a file called registration files and then i just copy paste them that is prrobably the easiest way to do it. Always make sure you have a backup copy of them to just in cse something would happen like computer crash make sure they are wrote down somwehere or burned to a cd.

Copy and paste them to a document and print them out and keep them on file. You never know when your system will crash and take all the data with it. Copy the file to a floppy or CDR disk.

I prefer the old pen-and-paper method myself.

Unless you are like me and have bad handwriting. Was that a "G" or a "6", a "2" or a "Z", a "U" or a "V"? Then you have to try out combinations until you get it right.

You can always Export the following registry folder to a .reg file:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Epic Interactive Strategy\Trade Wars 2002 Game Server\Configuration

All of your server-specific settings are there including your reg codes.
