backing up SE PCsuite

tigerstyle · 25 Aug 2008 at 22:11

G'day, I'm about to format this hdd, but I need to backup the 'backups' I made of my phone from SonyEricsson PC Suite, but can't find where it keeps them in windows?

Any ideas? Would like to know it is 100% safe as I my phone is of for repair at the moment, and can't make a fresh copy of them,

TIA ^o^

I think I found it lads, if anyone wants to try for future reference,

in the PCSuite install folder there is a folder marked backup or data, something like that, and in it were 3 folders (I only backed up 3 times, and the date created dates matched) so I opened one in notepad and scrolled down for ages (big file) and it starts listing folders on my machine, those folders were all in my documents, but 'shared/all user' documents, not sure exactly which.

But thre were hundreds of tiny files in there, I'm guessing each number/txt/sim entry is in there. So cut and paste that whole folder to paste over when I re-install. Will know if it works when my phones back from repair!
