I had a similar situation. I am running VMWare guest with Windows in
a Linux (host) environment. I copied my TB! into the new Windows 98
guest OS, from my W2K OS (on another HD), and then just copied all the
subdirectories with it. My entire TB! directory in other words was
copied to the new OS. I did nothing to the registry, nor did I
officially install TB! in the new OS.
Then to get the accounts to show up in TB!, press Shift+Ctrl+Alt+L to
recover lost folders and messages. I then set up TB! by each account
name that I had previously, and all the folders with email is
automatically there - just by putting the account names into the new
TB!. Works like a charm. Then just start TB!. All cookie files,
filters, and other attributes are intact into the new OS, as you had
them previously.
