I used the Windows XP File and Settings Transfer Wizard to copy off my
information prior to upgrading to Windows 7. Since Windows 7 uses a new tool
called Easy Transfer and does not recognize the old file, is there anyway to
bring back the old settings?
Thanks,
Jim |

Mucks that up as well does it?

If there's only one (1) identity and it is not the default Main Identity (or
is not a renaming of the Main Identity), FAST will work...kinda/sorta. But
why take chances? >> Stay informed about: Windows XP File Transfer Wizard |

Precisely - the problem seems to be that WET gives NO warning that
transferring Outlook and OE data via it will probably cause problems... >> Stay informed about: Windows XP File Transfer Wizard |
