What is the best way to do this? Use TB's internal backup system to create a TBK file. Copy this to the new computer before installing TB. At the point of installation, during initial configuration, TB asks if there is a backup to restore. This sets up the registry, mail folders, filters, account properties and registration details all in one go. >> With 7-Zip... AY> Greg, I don't have 7-Zip and am not inclined to move to another AY> Zip application. So does your script work with WinZip? Or does AY> anyone have the same or similar script for WinRar? Is there AY> another option? Winzip and Winrar are both GUI apps. The whole point of the GFS backup is that it is a DOS batch file and runs from a DOS / CMD shell. By definition it requires a command line compression utility. 7-zip is one. It doesn't have a front end and won't require you to migrate. Furthermore, it's free. -- Cheers -- //.arck D Pearlstone -- List moderator and fellow end user TB! v3.0.2.10 on Windows XP 5.1.2600 Service Pack 2 '
