Where is the favorites list stored

[The G-Man]

All,

I have migrated my system to a new pc as a fresh install and wanted to copy over my favorites list. I found the history .dat and related files by not the favorites. Does anybody know where to find them and if I can just copy them over.

The favorites are now database driven there in an ms access database data.mdb in the data folder.

Thanks Tom, What else is stored in that database?

[The G-Man]

I'm not seeing it, my old PC has version 7.51. Is the database new since then?

[Tom Speirs]

Yes, in which case its gameslist.ini and gameslist.txt.

Would I be better off copying over my old Game Ex folder to my new system and doing a update?

[Tom Speirs]

Yes, in which case its gameslist.ini and gameslist.txt.

Yourll need to copy them over then run this registry file. Then launch GameEx.

RemoveDbUpgrade.zip

Yes probably, but if youve already launched the new version, yourll need to run the registry script.

I copied those two files, ran the script and then entered game ex and there is nothing in the favorites list.

Maybe I should just uninstall, copy over the old system and then update.
