Will removing a newer version of IE removes all the "favorites" sa

[Jack]

Hi all,

I have recently upgraded my Internet Explorer to version 8 but found that

some websites do not work properly with it. I'm wondering if I uninstall this

version 8 and go back to re-install version 6, will all my "favourites" (i.e.

links to my favourite websites) saved in the existing version 8 of IE be

transferred to version 6 automatically? I'm afraid of losing all the

"favourites" here if I uninstall any version of IE. Thanks.

When done properly, your Favorites should be preservered when installing or

uninstalling an IE upgrade.



Before uninstalling IE8, do a little reading on IE8's Compatibility Mode:
