I've tried to get the launcher to recognize a backed up install of STO in the past and found that it would rather just delete everything and redownload it. It's worked in the past but PWE have changed something with Arc and the STO launcher that makes it not work.
You might be hooped.

save your UI setting in game. exit sto and go
C:\Program Files (x86)\Star Trek Online_en\Star Trek Online\Live
In the Live folder, there is a file named:
ui_settings
copy and store somewhere safe like your Docs.
if you ever reinstall STO, copy and paste the saved file ui_settings back into the Live folder, replacing the default one
Go back into sto UI setting and click (Load UI)
your key binds and user settings will be restored.

Do you mean your game progress is deleted, too? Is that saved on STO somewhere or is that saved on our own computers?

your progress like leveling, RD, Inventory items, ships- all that is saved onto the sto account on their server. I wouldn't worry about that. just last month I installed sto on a new computer i had bought. did a fresh install and logged in. everything is there. I pasted my ui setting into the program folder, hit 'load ui' in the settings window and everything looked the way i wanted from my old computer. The only thing you can lose is your UI_setting. like your keybinds and HUD position. not to mention all your options you tweaked. that's the important stuff. god forbid I if I ever log on and find my charater gone, or a ship missing, or something else of that nature. I would call crypic

Okay, thanks, that's what I was really asking, I should have been more specific haha all those other settings I don't mind adjusting, just didn't want to lose my character and all that.
