Hi Antonio,

I tried it on my private computer.On XP Pro SP3 with IE v8 installed.

When I move the folder the way I explain, IE moves everything also to target place. Including cookies,html files and all the rest. You need log-off and log-on as IE asks as soon as you move the folder.

Don't forget to create your target folder on your favorite drive at first. Move the folder then.

Cheers
TK

I will open another question please let me know if am I doing right or if there any fast way

Thank you
