    It is usually located in the Documents/My Games/Final Fantasy XIV Realm Reborn folder. The folder you are looking for is the one with a bunch of numbers.

    Open your launcher, click on Config below, and then Backup :P You'll be able to save a file where all that will be stored, and then you'll just have to follow the same steps to load it again once you reformat.

    Should be in
    C:\Users\*usernamehere*\Documents\My Games\FINAL FANTASY XIV - A Realm Reborn\

    That folder holds general game settings and saved character appearances, and then in the FFXIV_CHR*biglongnumber* folders you'll find the individual character settings/hotbars/macros.

    No problem

    It's pretty useful too if you want to experiment with different UI layouts, so you can restore it quickly or save a couple of configs.
