Unfortunately, the favorites file is a windows\system file in my PC. [but the IE explorer.exe is in c:\programs.] I can copy it and make it available from somewhere else but have yet to figure out how to replace a newly installed one with a saved copy. So. I can save it on D drive with a link on desktop...but any new favorites still get stored in windows.
