    I recently did a archive re-install and can't find that archive folder anywhere. Where would it be?

    The archive folder is called Previous Systems and it is located at the root of your hard drive (probably called "Macintosh HD" unless you renamed it).

    found my answer in a "search". The only thing I wanted to save was my printer info but nothing worked as far as a save to use. So, I just re-installed from the printer disk.
    The previous system folder was owned by root. So, I had to go in as root to toss it. Just an extra pain in the @@@ step but it worked.
