I need to do a clean install of Windows. I just want to make sure I understand how to bac kup my Dolphin files correctly. The only folder I need to back up is the Dolphin folder in My Documents, right? Then if I put the folder back in the same place after installing Dolphin 5 on my new install all my settings and game saves should be restored?

Yes, assuming that you haven't changed the location of Dolphin's configuration directory using either portable.txt or the registry. If you want to check that you've got the right folder, make a backup of it and then move the original so that it isn't where it's supposed to be. If all of Dolphin's save files and settings now are missing, you have the right folder.

It's still in the original location. Thanks.
