Hello all. I believe this would be the correct location for this question. So, you can install/uninstall the plug in, buy/sell games, but what about the actual memory file for the game? I've sold games before, and when I bought it back one time I found that downloading it was not necessary. So the main question is: How do you delete the actual file of a particular game from your computer when you sell a game and/or just don't want to play it anymore? Or is all of the memory you download from this site piled into the plug in download?
Thanks

The save file of the game is stored on the server, not in your computer.

Okay, that's good to know about the save file, but what about the game file itself?
ok,let me try to be more clear:
when you first click a game it says "File size _MB" and "Downloading ROM." And once it's downloaded you don't have to download it again, even if you're buying the game again after selling it back. So that file is still there. Where is the game/ROM file stored? Just curious before I put more stuff on my laptop. I know the file sizes aren't drastic, but if I can delete things I don't use that would be great. Is it all just stored on the site? If I signed in as a guest would I have to download it again?
Thanks

I sent this in a PM to daniel but I'll post it too.

The files are stored in the locations below-

For XP users-
%HOMEPATH%Local SettingsApplication DataVizzedRgrDownloads
%HOMEPATH%Local SettingsApplication DataVizzedRgrRoms

%HOMEPATH% is supposed to redirect to your local desktop account, so for example
C:Documents and SettingsUSER NAMELocal SettingsApplication DataVizzedRgr

For Vista7 users-
%HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%AppDataLocalLowVizzedRgrRoms
%HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%AppDataLocalLowVizzedRgrDownloads

%HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH% is supposed to redirect to your local desktop account, so for example
C:UsersUSER NAMEAppDataLocalLowVizzedRgr

edit- who has a username as just "C"... sigh ah well, they get a random thread summon.
