I am having problems with my computer, and have been told to restore to the factory settings. I have copied all my documents, photos, favourites etc. to external hard drive. I have also made a cd of windows reinstall. Are there any other files (or things!) that I should copy? Nothing major stored on my computer, I just use internet mostly.
Use the Files & Settings Transfer Wizard. That's what it is there for.
Save Cookies .. Favorites (Web browser) Desktop settings ..
Other settings files.
Copy whole My Docs folder, along with any other stuff you need.
