Move Favorites Bar to another PC
Can anybody tell me where the file is stored for this feature? I
would like to move the settings to a new PC.
Thanks, Steve

Re: Move Favorites Bar to another PC
Hi,
Assuming that both computers run IE8...
The Favorites Bar is simply another folder in Favorites. If you export
Favorites from one computer and import those Favorites to another (via a
bookmarks.htm file) the Favorites Bar should contain the same URLs.

Export from IE> File> Import and export.

Hope this helps,
