Hi, You can find the file from within GC on the old PC (you haven't mentioned an OS) - if there's no file extension are you on a linux distro?
File -> Save As will give you a pointer to the correct path to find your data file. In fact, while you are in File -> Save As... you might as well just save to a USB stick and save some clicking... Or if you have already copied your ~ to the new PC, just navigate to the same path on the new PC and see what is there. HTH, Maf.
