Just Where Is My Personal Data?

Over on the MCQN Ltd. blog I’ve just started a series of posts to help you find out what you should back-up.

The “My Documents” folder is an obvious candidate to be backed up, but programs like Outlook Express squirrel away your data elsewhere, often in a location that isn’t immediately obvious. What I want to do with the series is build it up into a useful repository of instructions on where to find the data, organised by program name. So, if you can think of any program you use which doesn’t store its data in the “My Documents” folder, I’d appreciate it if you could leave a comment about it or send me an email.
