    You will definetly loose your IRs if you reinstall Waves. As stated above, simply copy them to your external HD or elsewhere. All you have to do afterwards,
    is to drag the IRs and preset folders (in case you're using e.g. 3rd party IRs like Bricasti...) back into the Waves IR1Impulses V2 folder. That's all.
