I have a big issue. My laptop [Win XP]had a hardware problem and I have no external backup of the data. The harddisk is still perfect and I have it now connected as external drive to another laptop [Win Vista]. I now want to use / recover the password file and copy it from the external disk to the new laptop so I have all the passwords again.

How can I do this? Where can I find the encripted file and where do I have to put it? Is this version dependant? I might have an older version on the old laptop [I think 3.4] and now I have 3.6.

BIG THANKS in advance Arthur
