Title: Where should I store my playlists?
Post by: okvaal on November 20, 2011, 06:48:30 am

A couple of weeks ago I got rid of Vista and installed W7 on my PC. Unfortunately, my AppData folder back-up was corrupted, and suddenly my what-shall-I-so-on-those-long-winter-nights problem was solved. So I start with restoring my playlists (a couple of other questions will come later). I did create a playlist (in MC 17), but I'm not able to find it on my PC. Guess that means I'll have to export it to my MC library, and put it inside a folder there? Or should I store it somewhere else?

Thanks in advance.

Playlists are part of a library backup.  If you did one, you can restore it in MC17.  MC backups automatically.

Thanks. I didn't know that. But the thing is, that I was able to find some earlier backups of my library which included some (about one year) old playlists. I'd like to copy these from their current location and into my C:\ etc. . . Library, and thought I would find a folder within the library to put them in. All I find is a file playlistx.jmd. So what would you suggest i should do with my old playlist files?

(I know the import playlist function, but I want these playlists to appear on the same level as my new playlists in the tree structure in the left panel.)
