PokerTracker

I recently had to perform a clean install of Windows on my computer which wiped all Pokertracker 4 related stuff on my SSD. Due to some BCD files being corrupted, I could not even boot into Windows. But at least I managed to access the files on the SSD and copied over to a USB the AppData -> Local -> Pokertracker 4 folder where I know some PT4 related stuff resides.

Now my question is if it is possible, and if so how I can import the HUD profiles/layouts from this folder to the Pokertracker installation on my fresh Windows installation? (Previous Pokertracker installation was on Windows 10 and the new installation is on Windows 11 if that makes any difference?) In the Data subfolder I found HudProfiles.pt4, HudProfiles.pt4.backup, Layouts.pt4 and Layouts.pt4.backup files which seems to be what I want to import? Unfortunately since I could not access PT4 and make a proper backup on the previous install this folder is all I have (and I know my database with handhistories is gone, to be clear all I want is the configurations for the HUD if it is possible). Does just copy and pasting the backup files to the corresponding folder on my current PT installation work or does it mess something up? Currently the AppData\Local\Pokertracker 4\Data\ folder only contains an empty AppsData subfolder.

You should copy/paste all the files and not just the ones with the .backup extension.

That's fine - just copy the files you have into your new AppData\Local\Pokertracker 4\Data\ folder.

Yeah that worked, thank you. :D

That's good to hear and thanks for confirming.
