I have copied my service.cache folder to another drive during an uninstall/reinstall, then copied it back. It takes a long time with so many files, but it does work.

Thanks for the reply ddrueding,maybe i am wrong but wouldnt the TileProxy photoreal world be cleaned out after a uninstall/reinstall leaving the cache folder files useless,or can that also be copied to another drive.Thanks Don

I think you misunderstand the purpose of the different folders. The service.cache folder contains the files downloaded from the internet service of your choice. The TP photoreal world folder contains the processed images and the bgl files. With the photoreal world folder erased, it does not have to re-download anything, just reprocess it. I would imagine that you could backup that folder as well, but I didn't bother.
