Saving Favorites

Can anybody suggest how to resolve the problem I have with saving
"Favorites". For some reason yesterday all my saved favorites disappeared
and now IE7 will not allow me to save any URL to the favorites folder.

I saved them previously as a bookmark on a flash drive and now I cannot
import them.

Thanks

How did you save them? Via File-Export to a file, or did you just copy them?

Re: Saving Favorites

Hi Gordon, I exported them using the Import/Export wizard.

I have tried to add a new site in favorites and it will not save it so I
suspect trying to import them again will not work either.

Funny thing, all was working well and then suddenly my favorites list was
not there.

Thanks

Well certainly try the import - if it doesn't work and there is an error
message, post that in full as it may well be instructive as to the problem.
