I intend to install an SSD and keep my current HDD for storage and possibly (most

So, what I want to do is install a new SSD, install W10 on that drive, and keep my
current HDD untouched. Well I will remove Windows 8.1 files of course. I'm not
sure if drive letters will be changed when I do that.
I guess booting needs to be done from drive C:\ ?
In the case the drive letter for my current HDD would change, The question here is
if I need to do something to Seamonkey to keep it running reliably, and finding
the message base. The drive letter will be changed I guess, unless we can boot
standard from ANY drive specified?
You'll need to reinstall Seamonkey under the new OS. If you want to keep your
configuration as is:
* First, make a copy of the new installation's [whatever_name_it_is].default
profile directory. You'll end up with a "[whatever_name_it_is].default - Copy"
directory. This is insurance.
* Delete the entire contents of the new installation's profile directory.
* Go to the profile directory of the earlier, other-OS Seamonkey and copy the
entire contents of that directory.
* Paste those contents into the new installation's now-empty profile directory.
You should now be back in business.
I am! Thanks guys!
Cool. :)
Same basic idea can be used for backing up and restoring SM configs to and from other
directories/disks without using any special software.
