Philosophaie Posted November 12, 2009 Report Share Posted November 12, 2009 In Internet Explorer 8 where is the folder that contains the favorites (Windows XP). It used to be in "C:\Documents and Settings\'MYUSER'\Favorites\" but when I try to change from that folder it does not show up on the Favorites Bar (not in the double-sided arrow either) neither does it change in "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Favorites\". Where am I going wrong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
