is located.

If someone could direct me to where that information might normally reside
in Home Premium Vista, I'd be really appreciative.

Thanks!

Thanks Rick,

Found and copied the info from the old drive but when I go to put it into
the new drive I don't have an area that says AppData. I've got Contacts,
Desktop, Documents, Downloads, Favorites, Links, Music, Pictures, Saved
Games, Searches and Videos but no AppData. The new computer is running Vista
Ultimate if that changes anything. If you can help me with where I'm
supposed to put the cookies, I'd again be appreciaitive.

Thanks again!

AppData is an hidden folder. You can either change settings to show hidden
files and folders or you can just type in AppData in the address bar after
the "C:\Users\<user>\" (resulting in C:\Users\<user>\AppData) and it should
open that hidden folder.

Thanks Gary,

Found it and got them moved. Is there an easy way to move over my cache IE
files as well? I guess I need to find the old location and the new location
for my previous IE history.

Thanks again in advance.

Just type "shell:cookies" in the Start Menu search box.
