| | favorites I have Vista on my laptop and hate it. I want to add FAVORITES to internet explorer from my desktop. I use to go to my documents and paste it into the favorites file. I cannot find anything like that. I found an Import Favorites tab, but that would only let me do one file at a time. I dont have time to do a few hundred files manually. Any guidance? |

| | Re: favorites Hi, fkosmakos. How about in C:\Users\fkosmakos\Favorites? If your User account name is not "fkosmakos", then edit that path to change "fkosmakos" to YOUR User name. Or, just press Start and type "favorites" (with or without quotes), then press Enter. You should see YOUR Favorites folder in Windows Explorer. The full pathname to that folder should be in Explorer's Address Bar, although you may need to scroll to see the C:\Users... part. RC -- R. C.
