Anyone know in which directory the ie favorites are stored on the hard drive? thanx.
 
Did you know you can export favorites to a .html file and then import them to another computer? Just go to File/Import and Export Vince Grice

c:\documents and settings\username\favorites is the default location

but... you can chage it

The easiest way to change it is using TweakUI.

On our home computer my wife likes to use my favorites so I set both to c:\documents and settings\All Users\favorites but not my sons and the visitor account who still has theirs in the default location.

I also know of some who move he documents and favorites set in a seperate location that is more easily backed up.
