I have a bunch of favorites (bookmarks) from a old machine in folders. How can I import them in windows 7? I don't have a proper exported backup.

What is the old OS? What browser? Do you have the other machine running at the same time? – Luke Oct 19 '11 at 22:18

If you can get access to the disk, the Windows favorite are stored in

c:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Favorites

or

c:\Users\<username>\Favorites

Depending on your version of Windows. You can just copy the shortcut files to the same location on your new machine.
