Per default they are somewhere in an "Frontier Developments/Elite" folder in AppData or some such, not in the Elite installation directory. Which doesn't mean that you could not backup them to the cloud (but I don't do so either), or indeed just plug the old system drive to the new PC and simply copy it from there.
Going by the forums, the new mining (esp. Void Opals) seems to be the new bonanza, earing billions in hours or some such. I guess by the time I return to the bubble, they will have adjusted it again... Then again, I will be billionaire anyway, already with the data that I aquired by now; almost 900kk "in the bank", and EDSM estimates >200kk worth of exploration data accumulated in 3 or 4 days - and I am far from going home...

Check the mining essentials thread. I made 725 million in three nights. Insanity.

I want to ask DM if you are bothered by this extreme derail of your thread. PM me if needed. I can request a moderator removes all of the stuff not ship name related and make a new thread of it. Sorry for doing this to your thread. My fault.
On the plus side, my stuff has shipped and if it all arrives tomorrow I MIGHT be back in business before the day is out.

Sorry for doing this to your thread. My fault. Heck no, it's all good I'm always interested to hear people's experiences in this game wherever the source. On the plus side, my stuff has shipped and if it all arrives tomorrow I MIGHT be back in business before the day is out. Good luck I've been rather lucky with my PC which I built 8 years ago - I made it well at the time, as fast and large as I could make it at the time and aside from a graphic card update has handled everything I ever threw at it. I don't look forward to the day when something fails.

OK cool, thanks man.
Parts arrived, build is done, aside from aesthetics. Had to be sure it worked first. Love that new PC snap. Boots in 15 seconds. Of course that will gradually get longer as time goes on, but pretty cool right now.
Now I need to reinstall software, update drivers and tweak settings. But I have a gaming PC once more. Looking forward to seeing how it performs.

There's something about putting all those parts together, turning it on, and.....it works!
Throughout history, poverty is the normal condition of man. Advances which permit this norm to be exceeded — here and there, now and then — are the work of an extremely small minority, frequently despised, often condemned, and almost always opposed by all right-thinking people. Whenever this tiny minority is kept from creating, or (as sometimes happens) is driven out of a society, the people then slip back into abject poverty. This is known as "bad luck.” -Robert Heinlein

Thanks. Elite is installing while I am sitting outside my son's school. When I get back I will set up the Cougar, remap and hopefully give it a go.

Someone (Who Cares?) recently suggested using the function in Inara to link it to your Frontier account. I've tried it before and got an 'access denied by user' error when attempting to log in to steam during the process. So I gave up and kept using EDMC. On this new box I tried again and same thing. Must be a setting. Anyone know what I need to do to get Inara linked to my Steam/Frontier account?
Got everything remapped, and actually made some changes I had been thinking of, added more functions to the stick. Remap only took about 10 minutes, not bad. Where are the bindings stored? I should back them up. Is it is appdata folder?

Nevermind, I was thinking I was supposed to choose my platform. But I was supposed to choose Frontier. Did so and it worked. Not sure why that wasn't obvious to me. Not the sharpest...

I forgot I was going to look that up and tell you - here's where mine are: C:\Users\Rick\AppData\Local\Frontier Developments\Elite Dangerous\Options\Bindings

Most of my cargo haulers are "Mom's Grocery Getter", my Sidewinders are "Lil Mule Pepe" (Romancing the Stone reference), explorers are "Phyxius", an Eagle named "SS Dan Daly" and a Krait Mk2 named "Crepe Mk2"... even looks flat like a delicious pancake...
