I even deleted them to prove it to myself.

Where as the *.ini & *.log files in your USER folder are used..

And those are the ones you want to make back ups of from time to time.

The correct folder as ACE-OF-ACES pointed out is


ie in your 'My Documents' folder under 1C SoftClub\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover, it is easy to access and backup.

You can save your controls in game through Option/Controls, you can save different profiles for various tasks eg bombing, dogfights etc and load them into the game when required.

You can delete the whole folder under C:\Users\<YOUR USER NAME HERE>\Documents\1C SoftClub\
it will be regenerated the next time you start Cliffs of Dover, this whole folder is kept stored and not necessary to keep safe.
