Backup copy of everything?

I don't particularly want to go through the entire process of creating a server again.. It was tough enough the first time. Can I just copy the folders EqEmuServer, Installs, Source, SQL and put them on my external HDD? In case I have to format or upgrade my OS, etc..? Will that work or do I have to go through the process again step by step..

Basically, yes, although really all you need is the EQEmuServer and a backup of your database. The wiki has a page about doing that.

Actually, after the first time installing is pretty easy. A few weeks ago I had never installed a server, and I volunteered to update the wiki as the old guide was confusingly out of date. This is also why it gets updated whenever anyone such as yourself has an issue.

Good job my friend. That is one extremely detailed guide.
