Okay so I was just moseying around the other day and I was thinking about my backups and all that jazz and I was just searching until I was like "I wonder if anyone out there has actually made a download for certain files of GTA IV" Now I backup everything of mine, but I was still curious, and what do you know I found someone who actually did. Now it isn't for everything but I thought this would come in handy for some users who just are too lazy to backup their files. 

 

 

Without further ado here ya go: http://www.gta-downloads.com/en/gta4/file-backups

 

 

I didn't upload any of these files, simply the guys over at GTA-Downloads did.

Moderators might not like this, since it's technically piracy.

 

I've found this quite useful though, I've recovered my game at least once by doing this. I wasn't quite in the habit of backing up files yet. It sure beats reinstalling the game.

^This. I personally don't think it's a good idea to download anything from the Internet as a backup. You're much better off to make your own backup, as they tell you that everywhere.

It's a risk to download anything from the Internet, and something simple as a backup really shouldn't be needed to download in the first place.

Anyway, management seems to allow it, so the topic remains.

While this can be useful to some, I'd prefer to keep my own backups.
