How do change default bookmark location in IE9?
I have a laptop setup with 2 partitions C: and F: with Windows 7 installed to the C:.
I have DeepFreeze installed and freezing the C: partition so it can't be modified. Currently I have redirected all normal folders such as My Documents, My Pictures etc, including the Desktop directory to the F: drive. My current issue is that Internet Explorer stores its bookmarks to the C:\ drive. I have looked at a ton of threads about changing the bookmark location for IE, as I want to have them store on the F: drive instead of the C: but I am not finding info for changing the directory.
In windows 7 most directories seem like they have a built in ability to just change the location property, but not certain about this.
I saw a thread that said you can browse to C:\Users\<User Name>\Favorites and change that folders location through the properties, and IE should automatically detect this and store the bookmarks to there. I did this, however after the folders location was moved none of my bookmarks stored to that new path. The only information I saw said 'restore the location or it won't work' which obviously defeats what I am trying to do. Does IE support this type of change natively, or is there a way to set it up?
