Hey guys!
So I'm trying to get my minecraft to run faster, I know that one way to do that is by deleting the entire .minecraft folder and then re-installing minecraft. But, I'm afraid that when I do this forge and MC patcher will no longer work with the re-installed version of minecraft. Does anyone know if installing, and then deleting minecraft affects anything with those files? After I delete minecraft will I need to delete those files (forge and MCpatcher) also (then reinstall them) in order for them to work? Please let me know ASAP as I would like to have it running smoother quickly. Also, will hexxit worlds be deleted also if i delete .minecraft ?

Sorry if this doesn't make a lot of sense

Thanks!

Yes, deleting .minecraft isn't going to speed anything up, unless possibly if it removes some mods with it. And yes, it will delete Force and McPatcher.
Remember to back up worlds.

If you delete your .minecraft folder everything related to minecraft will be destroyed it will be like downloading the game again on a new computer.If you want to save your worlds backup the folders inside the saves folder in .minecraft and when you restart minecraft and the saves folder is recreated put them back in(after installing the mods required for them).
