Vista\XP Explorer Favorites Folders

Alpha_and_Omega · 19th June 2008

I'm not really sure where this should be posted, but hiopefully its okay here...

What I'd like to know, is it possible to have Vista and XP both use the same favorites folder... instead of a favorites folder for Vista and another for XP?

Is there a way to edit the registery for XP and direct it to the Favorites folder in Vista or vice versa?

You could have a desktop shortcut on both machines pointing to the same folder. Just can't access them from within IE.

There are websites that can host your favorites so you can access them from any machine in the world....

Thanks Steve, I've been copying them from XP to Vista anytime I've added or removed anything but was hoping I could jusy use one folder for both...

I'll try the DeskTop folder idea and see how that works out, if not I will continue my coping from one to the other....

Thanks again..
