IE Favorites Bar Path

Hello Experts,

I know that IE saves the favorites in the Favoirites Bar under a certain directory like Local settings\application data\...

I just installed network drive and wanted to know if I can change this path, so IE gets the links fron another folder.

Thank you

You can change the path to the Favorites themselves, but not just the Favorites Bar..... Fairly Certain, as they are stored in another folder within favorites.....

C:\Users\USERID\Favorites\Links

Don't use a network path. Create a local or AD GPO to push it out to your users.
