Hello,
I have to reformat a PC running XP Pro and IE 6.
I can't get in to Windows, but I can get in to DOS.
Is there a location where I can find the 'Favourites' that have been saved, and copy them, and paste them back in after the format??
Thanks!
Amber

C:\Documents and Settings\username\Favorites type this at the command prompt. Replace username with the name of the user you need the files for.

You may leave off the C:\ and also may have to CD to the directory Doc and settings then CD to Favorites
