[QUOTE="6string, post: 930834, member: 120039"] A bit off the topic, but you may know... is there a software programme that if I want to move an application off an external HD to my internal HD, that finds a moves all the application support, preferences, and any other files to restore as it was. For instance, if I want to move firefox, or mail etc, that it restores it completely as it was. Firefox with bookmarks, plugins, etc/Mail, setup and running with all related files, and so forth? The reason I ask, is that I want to do a clean install, and then manually move over the apps, documents, pics, music, movies that I want. With some applications I manage to find everything I need (as tedious as it is) and for some I have no success, and therefore, keep restoring from backup, as I don't want to have to start from scratch with certain applications. Should I just start a new thread, and see if I have any luck? [/QUOTE]
