TechNet Setup Does Not Transfer Bookmarks

PSS ID Number: Q124515 Article last modified on 09-18-1996

WINDOWS

The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft TechNet

SYMPTOMS

Previously defined bookmarks may not be available after installing a newer edition of TechNet.

RESOLUTION

NOTE: The following instructions use the October ’94 and November ’94 TechNet CDs as an example.

  1. Copy the TNET1094.BKM file to TNET1194.BKM. To do this, type the following commands at an MS-DOS command prompt:

    cd copy tnet1094.bkm tnet1194.bkm

  2. Edit the TNET1194.BKM file and change the reference of TNET1094.MVB to TNET1104.MVB. (Editing the TNET1194.BKM requires a binary file editor, such as Disk Editor from Norton Utilities. Do not use Microsoft Windows Notepad or Write to edit this file; doing so will corrupt the file.)

MORE INFORMATION

Installing a newer version of TechNet into a directory already containing TechNet files is supposed to update the defined bookmarks so that they are available in both editions of TechNet. In some cases, this updating process is not successful even though the TechNet Setup displays the message “Transferring bookmarks and annotations.”
