I have installed mp3tag onto a new computer.

Which folders/files do I need to copy from my previous mp3tag to keep the same actions, etc?

I did several searches for what I thought would be key words, and found nothing.

Thanks.

IM,

look at the drive where you had MP3tag installed. Look for a file named Mp3tagSettings.zip - extract it to your new installed location, double-click the reg file, done.
