How to use scoop after reinstalling the system

[jiayaoO3O]

If I want to reinstall the system, I should copy the scoop directory to a safe place, put it in the user directory after reinstalling, and then execute the following command?
iex (new-object net.webclient).downloadstring('https://get.scoop.sh')
thanks : )

You need to add system environment paths as you have right now manually, because installier will fail with Scoop is already installed

1. You need to Copy scoop's folder when you want it to have.
2. Add location from first step as $env:SCOOP
3. Append $env:SCOOP\shims to path
4. run scoop reset *

Thanks for your help, but when I run scoop reset *, I got this:

Linking Y:\Scoop\apps\7zip\current => Y:\Scoop\apps\7zip\current
Error: Version 'current' is not allowed!

@jiayaoO3O 实际上我就是按照您的这篇文章操作的

那可能是scoop的app中所有软件的current文件夹变成了一个真正的文件夹,而不是一个软链接,你试试双击打开current文件夹看看里面有什么东西,如果没东西,试试把current删了,让scoop自动生成一个新的

@jiayaoO3O 好使了，多谢多谢！

before i reinstall the system，the scoop path user/A，and if i copy the file to other pc ， user/B and scoop reset *，Is it feasible

[jiayaoO3O]

@lszxyz Yes, but even if you change your computer, the installation directory of scoop should be C:\Users\ {your name}\scoop

It can`t solve,because some soft install need regedit.Example Web page calls app telegram。
