It puts all your old files into a 'backup' folder so all the old stuff is still available - but how do I find my old address book. I have searched for *.wab and don't see any results. I presume it was in the user/local settings/application data/identities/xxxxxxx/microsoft/outlook express However, everything in this location is years old, and contains nothing that looks like an address book. I know I should have exported a copy - but I didn't. So where is it hiding - anyone know? Bob Go into the registry and look under: HKEY_USERS\yourSID\Software\Microsoft\Wab\WAB4\W ab File Name That specifies where is the .wab file for your Windows account. The location was probably the same under your old OS instance as it is under your new OS instance. You'll notice that "identities" is NOT in the path to the .wab folder. |
