My AppData\Local\RedM\RedM.app\data\game-storage folder is 30GB. What happens if I delete it?

What is the issue you’re having?

I’m trying to upgrade from Win10 to Win11 and I want to free up space on my C: drive and I found that the “…AppData\Local\RedM\RedM.app\data\game-storage” folder is using 30GB. Can I delete it temporarily and will it be easily replaced next time I run RedM (like the cache folders)? Or will I lose characters or server access? Or break RedM?

Ideally, I need to move RedM to another drive as the entire RedM folder is using almost 50GB of my tiny 256GB C: drive. If I uninstall RedM will it free up all 50GB of space or leave files behind? And then can I reinstall it on another drive and not lose characters or server access? I’m just wanting to know the risks and what will be lost, if anything, how to uninstall and how to install on another drive, etc. Thanks
