Due to some performance issues, I need to scrub my PC and install Windows from scratch on a new disk 🥴. I can't simply upgrade, needs to be a fresh Windows install.
How can I backup all my necessary vMix configuration and data files, and then restore them afterwards to minimize recreating my inputs, playlists, etc?

Hi, to create a Vmix backup file, go to Save As on the top left corner of Vmix and then click on Save as Bundle. This will create a backup file with all your inputs, videos, etc.

Also, go to settings in Vmix and click on Export. This will create a .config file with your shortcuts and settings.

Save those to an external drive.

I suggest testing these files on your system or other system before formatting everything to make sure you did it correctly and that you have everything you need for I may have missed something.
