Topic: where is database stored
Hi, can you tell me where the tag database is stored on hard drive and what filename(s) are used? I would like to make sure to backup the tag info!
Re: where is database stored
Database is stored in file Tags.wft. The file is located in the same folder as the application.

Andrei, thanks for your quick reply...but...
sorry, I don't see that file ("Tags.wft") at all. Here's what I do see with my default Vista installation:
Directory of C:\Program Files\TaggedFrog
02/01/2009 10:48 AM <DIR> .
02/01/2009 10:48 AM <DIR> ..

I don't see Tags.wft. Actually, I searched and can't find such a file anywhere on the computer. Any ideas?

Re: where is database stored
OK, I've found it here:
C:\Users\admin\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\TaggedFrog\tags.wft
Now for a few suggestions:
1. Allow option setting for where to put this file. I'd like to have it on my redundant storage network drive which is a good bit safer reliability-wise than the local hard drive. In the meantime, maybe I can figure out how to mirror it automatically.
2. Make a way for taggedfrog to automatically handle tagged files being moved to a new location. Or as an alternative, store tags.wft in a text-friendly format so I could edit it manually or write a program/script to do it.
In the meantime, thanks for a very useful program and I look forward to your improvements.

Yes, I am sorry – I forget that you could use Vista, not XP.
