Default ALWAYS ask DD!!

I am moving everything to a new laptop and I had created a BIG mess!
I am using PSE6 and I thought I had to move all my files to my new computer before using backup and restore to organize them in Elements.
Joey (babyroo7) started a great thread yesterday about the Organizer. Sarah (dugarner) and Sara (sarahorton) had exactly the answers I happened to need, too!
After learning that PSE backup and restore actually moves all my files for me and then sets them up just as I had them on the old computer, I was able to fix it all after some days of frustration!
I could have saved myself a bunch of stress.
The moral of the story? Always ask DD!
Thanks, Joey, Sara, and Sarah!!!!
