Some further info - I've just fired up my old Win 98SE PC, which has
PS 6.0 installed, and the PS preferences files etc are stored in

C:\WINDOWS\Application Data\Adobe\Photoshop\6.0\Adobe Photoshop 6
Settings\

File names in here follow the same pattern as I mentioned earlier,
i.e. *.psp and *.csf.

Regards,

Alan
