Dual Boot XP System - can OE share the same dbx folders?
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. Ian

Users can share an OE Store Folder.
The Registry settings must be the same for each OE. http://www.dougknox.com/xp/tips/xp_sharing.htm http://www.insideoe.com/backup/clone.htm http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_oe.htm -- Ron Sommer "Ian R" wrote in message ... : 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. : : Ian : : :
