Does anyone know of a quick and effective way to transfer the history of Internet Explorer to another computer.

This is so that when you type in the url bar, you will be able to see your recent visits.

Nirsoft has a IE history view. But it only list the items but has no facility to transfer.

Yes it is very possible to do so.

Just export the registry key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\TypedURLs and copy it over to the other computer and import it.

If you don't feel comfortable editing the registry in that way then I can make a quick program for you to do so. :)

Cool - Thanks

Should be no problem exporting to a .reg

I guess just copy the file over to the new computer, click it and accept that it will place the reg key in and that should be it. Right ?
