  1. InstallPath\ITAnimo\AR POS\HelpFiles\BarControls
  2. InstallPath\ITAnimo\AR POS\Logo
  3. InstallPath\ITAnimo\AR POS\ReportsNew

There is a config file which also can be copied to skip steps of DB Configuration after reinstallation of POS Application, for that take a backup of following files

  1. InstallPath\ITAnimo\AR POS\AnimoWebPOS.exe.config
  2. InstallPath\ITAnimo\AR POS\DataSyncService\DataSyncService.exe.config
