For example, if I need to reinstall, how should I save my favorite styles?
Where is this file?

The text file that shows your favorites is this one:

c:\bb\preferences\StyleFavorites.txt

After the new install, copy the old StyleFavorites.txt back to the above directory location and it should be back to normal

OR

you can print out the StyleFavorites.txt file before reinstalling and manually make anything in the old list your current favorites after the install.

Either way will work.

Also on the Favourite/Recent Styles dialog there is a Save and Load feature
very handy for a number of purposes.

I don't think so. That is where to save Favorite Styles. Styles are different to Songs.

Styles are the musicians and their instruments and playing method to play your song.

You can have the same Song, and change it to play as a Pop, Bossa, Rock, Hip Hop etc by simply changing the applied Style.

You're talking about your own way to save songs.
I asked about the official styles, how to save my favorite list... Which file do you want to save...

Doesn't BIAB have a function called setting it as your favorite?
I'm worried about losing this favorite list because of reinstallation.
So I want to know how to save this favorite list. grin

I'm confused. You asked: "Is this the place to manage your own SGU songs?", and you highlighted the Style Picker and Favorite Styles, not favorite songs.
You manage your favorite songs from here (Experiment with saving and loading to see how it works):

That is great. As I mentioned: Experiment with saving and loading to see how it works. I think this is the right one for your own songs, but do experiment to learn that it achieves what you need.
