Restoring GP After Computer Crash

Last night, due to a power outage or some sort of power surge, my laptop fried and is basically done for.

A few days ago I made a backup of the .gig file, but I haven’t backed up any of the plugins or anything.

I just purchased a new laptop. Is there any way I can restore my .gig file? Is it as simple as redownloading all the plugins I had (not very many) and then opening the .gig file?

Thanks in advance.

If you install and reauthorize the same plugins on the new machine, there is no reason you wouldn’t be able to use your backed up gigfile

Make sure you use the same file path for all samples (or symbolic links using the same path).
