I installed PB 5 on a Win 8 box, but can't find the prefs file. I have my old 'fav prefs'
file, and would like to use it, but where should i put it??

It is the same as on vista, 7 and so on:
Code: Select all
Debug GetEnvironmentVariable("APPDATA") + "\PureBasic\PureBasic.prefs"

C:\Users\Stig\AppData\Roaming\PureBasic\PureBasic.prefs
There's no AppData folder in there ?

Ok, the folder is there, but Windows explorer in Windows 8 must be configured to show the AppData folder. Its a bit more complicated than 7 or the old windows explorers..

AppData is always a hidden-directory. The same on Win 7
