If you have the steam version ? You have it ... ?! what do you need ?
If you want the DVD version, i think you have to buy it again ...... AS Shop ... but why you want ?

I think , only 2 ways ...make now a complete backup ...or buy again a new DVD liz ....

If i ever had to reinstall i would not have to dL massive files
Not correct. The DVD only contains the base sim with (afaik) the high res textures for the initial scenery (on some 6 dvd's...?). You'd still have to download Utah, Colorade, DLC, Q400, etc. and don't forget any updates! So that's about 75% you'd still have to download. And in the future, when more things are being released, you'd have to download even more in comparison. So if I were you I'd stick with Steam. It's a lot easier to install and always up to date.

And there are some freeware backup programs ( eg aiomei ?) so you dont have to download all again,
make a copy of your HDD / SSD ... ( everytime better way , than install all again )
I have install Win10 with all drivers ... backup full SSD
install flight sims... backup full SSD
install all updates / addons ... backup full SSD
And when i install critical things makle before ... ...right ...backup full SSD
On my second SSD are my external programs, there i made a standart * .bat copy to external HDD,
