where are signatures stored in OL 2003

[MarkusW]

Hi everyone!

One of our users asked me to transfer his Outlook-signatures from one
pc to another.
Searching the web I have found "%AppData%\Microsoft\Signatures" as the
path to the signature-files. Checking it with my own account this
seemed to be right...
....but when I checked the filesystem on the user-pc I didn't find
anything like a "signatures" folder (yes I did search for hidden files,
yes I did search for "sig*").
Using remote assitance I ensured that there are signatures in that
users Outlook-profile.

Where are they stored and how do I transfer them to another pc?

Thanks

Markus

That's definitely the right location. What folders do you see under %appdata%\Microsoft, with show hidden folders turned on?

It is.

You didn't enable hidden folders, though, I'll bet.

They're ordinary files. Just copy them with whatever means you have.
