Importing Favourites from W95 machine to W vista machine

#1 (**permalink**) 11-19-2007, 08:21 PM

I have older computer with W95 with all my Favourites. Can't seem to import
to new Windows Vista machine. Must be doable!. Can anyone describe how?

I don't believe versions of Internet Explorer that ran on Windows 95 had
the Import and Export Wizard. Vista's "Windows Easy Transfer" doesn't
work with Windows 95. Looks like you're going to have to do it the long
way or try to find a third party tool.

Copy the contents of the Favorites folder on the Win95 machine to the
Favorites folder on the new machine.
