Moving Favorites Folder

[David]

Is there any way to move my Favorites folder? I would like to do so to make
my backup routine easier.
Thx

The filepath is stored in the Registry so (if you know
how to use REGEDIT safely) you can make the
filepath whatever you like.

I don't have any problem changing items in the registry, but I don't know
how to go about locating what I want to change. Any suggestions would be
welcome.

As noted on that web page, TweakUI can be used to change the location of your
Favorites folder.
