I have 3 different yahoo screen names I use and have them setup the way I like. I was wondering if there is a way to keep your preferences when you upgrade to a new version of Yahoo? When I upgraded to the new version 8 a week or so ago, it didn’t keep my preferences.

Hi enigma,

Most settings are stored in the registry under profile keys under that certain name.

If you’re familiar with the registry you could make specific .reg files to suit each id, but would take a while.
