Is there a way in IE 6.0 SP2 to have a Favorites folder that is shared with
the other users on the computer? I had hoped that bookmarks place in
"\Documents and Settings\All Users\Favorites" would be shared with all users
but this does not appear to be the case.
 
Hi Brent :-)

If you wish to share Favorites/Bookmarks with others, you might try the
following information and see if it will help:

Hope this helps :-)

Smiles are meant to be shared,
that's why they're so contagious.

Jan,

Thanks for info but it's not what I am looking for. Rather than exporting
and importing, I was hoping that I could have some favorites that are are
simultenously shared with all Internet Explorer users on the same computer.
Something similar to how entries work in the Start Menu. Some items show up

up
on all user's Start Menu (those found in the "All Users" Start Menu) where
as
others are private to that user.

Not sure that's doable as Favorites are generally by User, but, if it is,
I'm sure someone here will know how to do it. :-)

Good luck!

Brent,

The All Users\Favorites folder is not used by IE. To establish a common
favorites path, alter the User Shell Folders Favorites path for all the
profiles:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User
Shell Folders
