That's true, but when I *then* ran TB!'s v1.44 executable, the system
treated it as a new, never before installed installation of TB!. Part
of a new installation process is entering the user's name, which I
entered exactly as it was before the crash. When the installation
finished, I was still in TB! and at this point I created my second
account for my S.O. entering her name exactly as it was before. Then I
closed TB!. So now the registry contains enough information to run TB!
with two accounts, mine and hers. I then used WINDOWS EXPLORER to
erase the TB! folder from my hard drive which left the registry
information un-touched. Before I decided to change operating systems,
I copied the TB! folder to a ZIP disk. I then used the copy on this
disk to copy TB!'s folder from the ZIP disk right back onto my hard
drive _replacing_ the folder I had just erased. Since the registry
contained enough information to allow TB! to run with two accounts,
when I re-started TB! all of my account information was there just as
it was before the OS change.

Actually I think you may have mis-understood what I was trying to say.
The HISTORY button appears to the right of the TO field when
_composing_ a message. The FAVORITES "down arrow" is attached to the
right of the CREATE A NEW MESSAGE button and only appears _before_ you
decide to create a new message.
