Many many problems since this game came out. More crashes than I can count and many BSOD. My question is this...if I uninstall and then reinstall this game will I lose all my game data and the items and characters I unlocked? If so, is there a way i can find the file that saves this data and copy it to my desktop and then add this file to my newly installed game so that I dont lose all my game progress with the new install???
No you won't loose your data by uninstalling/reinstalling.
Your BSOD are caused by a problem with your computer not this game. Promise you.
Post crash logs to the game and post your BSOD information. Likely a driver is messed up.
BlueScreenView program can help quiet a bit... but it certainly isn't the "best" way to track down the issue... by far the easiest though.

I'm 90% sure you are wasting your time by uninstalling/reinstalling.
Thanks for the info. And yes I have to do a reinstall because I was in the middle of a "repair file" for the game and comp crashed. Then when I went back into Origin it said I needed to "update" the game. Selecting update does nothing for me and it sits at zero percent updated forever. And when I try to play either my character is invisible and can not use abilities or it crashes. So I have no choice but to uninstall and reinstall since the game will not update for me after that crash in the middle of doing the file repair.
My computer sat in the repair shop for 5 days with them trying to figure out why PVZGW crashes on me. Last resort they say is to do a wipe and reinstall windows which means I lose all my programs.
Until then, I wanted to try and play the next two nights. So far not luck. Trying the reinstall now. Thanks again.
