LRGEX Restore

Automatic folder backup, versioning, and restore after a Windows reinstall.

Portable • Open Source • MIT Licensed


You just reinstalled Windows. Now what?

Your apps are gone. Your settings are gone. Your save files are gone. You're sitting in front of a fresh Windows install with nothing but the default wallpaper and a mounting sense of dread.

Which folders did you forget to back up? Where did that app store its config? Why is your save game from 200 hours ago just... not there?

Every Windows user goes through this. And every time, the answer is the same: hours of manually finding, copying, and restoring folders.


LRGEX Restore fixes this.

Not just backup. Automatic restore.

You set it up once. It backs up your folders to your cloud (OneDrive, Google Drive, any synced folder). When you reinstall Windows — different username, different PC, different everything — you open the app, click Restore All, and every folder goes back to where it belongs.

No manual path fixing. No forgotten folders. No hours wasted.
