Users can share an OE Store Folder.
The Registry settings must be the same for each OE.

: Hi
:
: I've set up a dual boot XP Pro/XP Pro system for testing purposes.
:
: I've got OE working fine in OS1- it would be nice if I could have it
working
: in both OS's so I don't have to reboot just to get email.
:
: Is it possible to have OE in the new installation use the same .dbx
folders?
:
: Or am I inviting a whole heap of potential trouble?
:
: FYI I have moved the default location of the OE folders to a separate
: partition for easier backup purposes.

: Thanks for your thoughts on this.
