I have a backup disk of my old computer that used Windows XP and IE 8. I can’t figure out how to get to the bookmarks I saved there in order to transfer them to my new computer.
In what folder are they stored?

C:\Documents and Settings[USERNAME]\Favorites
There is no Favorites folder there. I’ve checked through the entire backup for Favorites and didn’t find them.
I guess I have to assume that it didn’t get copied for some reason.
I’m just jumping in to agree with Shagnasty - that’s where I found the Favorites items on a couple of Windows XP machines that I just checked.
I’ll note that the machines I checked all started with (I believe) IE6, were then upgraded to IE7, and then upgraded to IE8. I suppose it’s possible that starting out with IE8 would yield different results.
