| 103010 | 2002-12-03 08:03:00 | I tried to get through at outage 22 time but after trying 3 times I realized what an outage was !!! My aim is to put my Favorites in MY DOCUMENTS as a back up but when I try to in Internet Explorer (DRAG & DROP ) & Right CLICK send to I get a cautionary message which made me realise that a system file has diferent rules than normal Files .......Please tell me the diference. How do you put My Favorites in MY Documents as I have been reading it is better to have all Folders under the one main folder |

| 103011 | 2002-12-03 09:08:00 | Hi What i did was to go to the windows folder and copied the favourites folder to a floppy. then you can copy from the floppy to the my documents folder there might be a better way but that worked for me Cheers |

| 103013 | 2002-12-03 20:15:00 | What version of Windows have you got? I've never had any trouble at all moving my Favorites to My Documents so that I can keep all the data in one place for backing up. In Win 98 I just dragged and dropped the entire folder and I've just done it now in Win XP, only this time I right-clicked, chose Cut then Pasted it into My Documents. The whole lot went without any fuss at all and it all works. :-) The other users will get a surprise when they go looking for them though, because it's no longer in the All Users folder. :D Oh well, they shouldn't be using MY favorites anyway...... :p |

| 103014 | 2002-12-04 02:53:00 | Thanks Susan. From your experience there is no difference between a Plain yellow FOLDER or a STAR Marked System Folder. I give it a try. | olldaddy76 (2539) | ||
