Manually backing up the personal filing cabinets in your AOL Desktop helps keep important mail safe in case anything should happen to the original files. The filing cabinets hold messages you saved in your “On My PC” folder within your Mail window. You can also use the backup files to move your saved AOL messages from one computer to another. The method for backing up the files differs depending on whether you’re using AOL Desktop 9 or AOL Desktop 10, as the two versions save your filing cabinet in different locations.
