Hi all,
Somehow explorer is looking at my favorites on an external drive. Aftre I
copy and paste my favorites over to a my internal hard drive, how do I get
IE7 to point to that directory? Any help would be appreciated!

Use the Import/Export Wizard to move Favorites from one place to another.

It will not allow me to import them. I have tried exporting them to a new
file and then tried importing the new file.
I think the problem lies in where IE is looking for the favorites. If I look
at any of my favorites properties it is showing the link resides on my
external drive. If I unplug the external drive the favorites are not
available. As soon as I plug it back in it works fine!

I found the answer. I used Tweak UI to change the path to the new folder.
