How many files do i have to upload from DAO?

[Big D Duchovny]

Well, i got Windows 7 beta installed, and as some of you may know, it expires tomorrow. I have played a great deal of DAO, and have covered the most of the story.
And it's here the problem comes up. Windows 7 beta is going to delete my files to make sure no
beta-code makes it to the real version of Windows 7, and, well, i dont want my Charachter files etc.. to get deleted, therefore i thought that i could just upload them to my e-mail, but how much do i have to upload? Save files, charachter files?

Any help is appreciated! And by the way, i could'nt figure out a more describing title, but i tried.

I'm not familiar with DAO, but emailing yourself files for backup is a bad idea in general. Grab a USB stick or external HD and backup the files you think you'll need. Search the DAO forums to see what is saved locally (if anything).

If you're upgrading to a full release of W7 and don't have access to external devices, use [URL="http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windows-vista/features/easy-transfer.aspx"]Windows Easy Transfer.[/URL]

Thanks, but I do not own a usb-device or external harddisk, and therefore i turned to the e-mail. I know an external harddisk would be more suitable for such a task, but it expires in 1 day, so I do not have ´time for buying one myself.

You're not going to be able to email them. The save folders are usually 50-200mb, depending on how many saves you have, and most of the save files are greater than 10mb, which means most email services won't let you use them. Go to the store, buy a flash drive, and then back them up that way.

You could sign up to dropbox [url]www.getdropbox.com[/url] and upload them there, it's got 2Gb free storage.

Thanks, im gonna try that^^

But first of all: Where do i find my files?
I've looked, but they're hard to find, i know this is possibly to much to ask for..

Edit: Ok, my deadline is about 2 and a half hour from now, and im standing in knee-deep shit, I just can't find that folder!
