Problem

Symptoms: Are there certain files in Windows that can be copied to a diskette as a backup to save your settings (such as colors, groups, icons, etc.) in case you need to re-install Windows? If so, what are those files? Solutions: Yes. These files fall into two groups: system settings and group information. System settings are contained in the WIN.INI, SYSTEM.INI, PROGMAN.INI, and CONTROL.INI files. Some Windows programs also have their own .INI files, and these will be located in the Windows directory. Group information will be in the .GRP files. Color settings can also be saved to a file in Control Panel|Colors.
