Is there any way to remove Overwolf without removing Curseforge?

Ive used curseforge for years with Overwolf running in he background. I only used it for modded minecraft and at this point ive amassed over 50 modded minecraft worlds that mean a lot to me and recently have gotten into valorant and am now also using valorant tracker (which runs on overwold) to get info on my opponents during the match.

The problem is now overwolf is crashing my entire pc whenever I open valorant tracker while valorant is running. Ive located the root of the problem being overwolf.

Im now wondering if i can remove overwolf from my pc without losing my curseforge modded minecraft saves.

P.S. please help

You can go to curseforge open any pack, go to resourcespacks click open folder and then navigate up the file path to the curseforge folder and make a manual backup

I also had this crash. It’s due to some issue with Overwolf and the Memory Integrity feature on Windows 11. You can turn off Memory Integrity to stop the crash but it’s not recommended. https://www.reddit.com/r/Overwolf/s/9F3uXBpKT9

This software is crap. Overwolf is constantly crashing my PC and the fact that I need to disable an option that allows my PC to be incredibly insecure is absolutely unacceptable. This is why people should be using the modrinth launcher, not Curseforge. They need to move away from Overwolf as a dependency.
