Favorites missing after the upgradation

Posted on 19:01 by Unknown
The Problem:-I have upgraded my operating system from windows 98 to Windows XP and since then all my favorites of internet explorer are missing.

Cause:-This happens because favorites are located in different locations in both the operating systems.In case of Windows 98 it's located under the %Windir%\Favorites where as in case of Windows XP it's located under %Userprofile%\Favorites.

Resolution:-To resolve this problem simply copy the shortcuts of all the favorites from the old location to the new location.
