If I bought the retail version, is the serial key stored in my redist folder or DVD ?

Indeed it is.

Well, I've written to the retailer's helpdesk e-mail. We'll probably just have to wait and see.

Bottom line : I'm not sure whether the game even asked me for a serial code when I installed it the first time a year and a half ago. The logical answer would be yes, but truth be told, it's been so long I myself don't remember. Sad

What I worry about the most is that if I uninstall Amnesia now completely, I might not even be able to reinstall the vanilla version. Sad There's still one last hope : I could return my computer settings to how they were prior to when I installed the DLC. That could help fixing the Amnesia install, eliminating the DLC files and making me able to play at least the vanilla game in case I might never get the DLC working.

This is what happens when retailers and publishers don't communicate well together. I hate it when retailers make up incompatable new serials, if that's the case. Sad

But I'll wait for the company helpdesk's answer first. If that fails, then I'll try plan B - reverting the settings.

Precisely.

Good idea, but it unfortunately didn't help. I didn't find anything like that in there. Just the usual player profile folder, saves and configs.
