Windows Forum / Windows XP / New Users / August 2007Backup wizard include Mozilla?
I would like to use Microsoft Backup Wizard to save my Netscape/Mozilla email, bookmarks, address book, etc. Are these files included in the "Files and Settings?/"My Documents..." selection? Or does that selection only include the files for Outlook Express, Internet Explorer Favourites, etc. Thank you, Joan >I would like to use Microsoft Backup Wizard to save my Netscape/Mozilla >email, bookmarks, address book, etc. [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > Thank you, > Joan They are in C:\Documents and settings\{your user name}\Application Data\Mozilla\ Thank you Gordon. I was aware of that folder but I am still not sure if the Microsoft Backup Utility program includes it in their automatic "Files and Settings" selection, or if it has to backed up separately. By any chance, is there a list somewhere of files included in the Backup Utility?

The Wizard has an option to choose what you backup..... Thank you again. I know about choosing one's own files, but I was hoping that the Microsoft Files and Settings selection would include the Mozilla files instead of having to back them up separately. Unfortunately it is an either/or situation.. You can select either "My documents and settings" OR "Let me choose what to backup", where the latter means EVERY critical file has to be individually identified in order to ensure a successful restore. Perhaps the answer is to set up 2 backup jobs - one for the Microsoft settings and one for the Mozilla folder. Cumbersome but workable?. Joan >> Thank you Gordon.

FWIW, this tool does mozilla backups specifically: http://mozbackup.jasnapaka.com/ Thanks to everyone who helped. I think I have wrestled the problem to the ground now. > FWIW, this tool does mozilla backups specifically: > > http://mozbackup.jasnapaka.com/ |
