Backup & Restore Groove 2007 in Vista

[Ridvan Akaslan]

Hello,

my Notebook's Vista crashed. The system doesn't start up. So I start WinPE.
Now I can copy files from the harddisk. I want to backup my Groove 2007
account and so on. Where are the files that I need to backup?

Greetings

I assume you do not have your account file (*.grv).
There two directories you need. Be aware that you use the same name for your
machine for this to work properly.

copy the system and user directories from
c:\users\%username%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Office\Groove

Then on your new machine install Groove 2007 but do not start your Groove
application yet.
Copy the two directories to the
:\users\%username%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Office\Groove location.

And then start Groove and the magic will happen.

see ya
