Where can I find the WORD application overall settings BACKUP file
Please, where can I find the WORD application overall settings BACKUP file
?As I recall, this covers all options and settings. At one stage a feature was shown on the START menu, in which one could save and select as many application backup files as one had saved. (I have found this feature is MOST useful after, say, a crash, but now I cannot find it). Thankyou. DAVID |

They're scattered over a half dozen files and the registry. In older versions of Office there was a Save My Settings wizard that tried to collect this information, but it never got everything. It has been omitted from Office 2007. In Windows Vista there's a Windows Easy Transfer application, and there's a downloadable Windows User State Migration Tool. I haven't used either of them, so I can't make a recommendation.
