Hello

 

If this is not the right place to ask, please politely tell me where!

 

Internet Explorer 7. Is there a facility to opt for a different location for

the favorites file? Can't find it in the 'options' or elsewhere. I'd like

to put it in My Documents for ease of scheduled backup. Currently it's in

\Documents and Settings \ [name] \

IE Tools | Internet Options | General | Browsing history | Settings | Move

folder (button).

 

TIP: Create the new folder first, then Move the files.

 

TIP: IE doesn't always like it when you do this. YMMV.
