Every couple of times a year I will reinstall my Windows, not because anything is wrong, just that I like to "clean house" every now and then. I know about how to backup my game files as it pertains to my created players and their abilities. But I'm not quite sure what to do to preserve the custom courses that I have installed.

Can anybody tell me how or if I can backup Custom course files? I'm not positive where they are located, though I assume (haven't check) that they are in Program Files.

My personal rule for putting: If it looks straight, shoot it straight- 7 times out of 10, itll go in. However if there is any contour at all- screw it, itll be a 2 putt Par :D

After I posted my previous message I took a stroll through My "program files" and strangely enough I couldn't find the Caddie Program. I confirmed this by looking in the programs list from the start menu, still couldn't find it. I know I have it and I used it 2 days ago to install the elks golf course and about a dozen other course prior to that. I normally access it through the download manager with the "open with" option. Can Somebody shed some light on this for me?

Will be in a folder called coursedownloads.com, as for backing up your custom game files you will find them in program files\easports\tiger woods pgatour2008\courses although backing these up then restoring them to their original position after reformatting your hard drive means they will still need installing into the game.

Ok found the program for now, thanks Rob. So actually I guess after I reinstall I'll just have to start fresh with the Custom courses. It'll be no big deal. Thanks again Rob.
