I've been a Pegasus user since 1993.  Since then I always updated the original install when new versions are released - - and copied everything over to a new hard drive whenever I've upgraded my hardware and/or operating system.

Unfortunately, after all these years the program has become somewhat corrupt and I think it's time to do a completely new, fresh install - BUT - I don't want to loose my address books or my mail folders. 

I realize I can copy them to a safe place before I delete PM and then do a fresh install, however, I don't know exactly which file extensions and/or folders contain my addresses and folders are located.  

Could somebody please help me with this so I don't loose a few years of mail and address collecting.

 

Thanks
