Hello

I am planning to reinstall my CoD WaW and I would like to know is:

Can backing up and using old profile again cause any problems?

Regards,
McParts

i wish we knew an answer.
Nevertheless i would suggest to disable all in-game notifications, popups and overlays e.g.

steamn.jpg 36.13K 17 downloads

as well make sure steam, xfire etc. is updated. delete /pb directory and make a fresh install using pbsetup.exe

The profile you backed up can simply be pasted to the correct location, and your old profile should be restored.

However on occasion this can fail and you'll get a notice about corrupt mp.data or whatever it is called which would mean your rank would be lost.
