After doing an Add Back some important preference files (Remote Access prefs) aren moved back. Whats wrong?

If there is another set of the same files in the new System Folder, the program stops to avoid overwriting them. Usually the preference files that were collected from your previous System Folder are the ones to keep (manually), unless you have entered newer information in the new System Folder. The way to avoid this is to install the new System Folder, then use C-IA to move your prefs to it before you do the first startup using the new System Folder: this is because the extensions and control panels in the new System Folder will immediately create new copies of their prefs files if they don’t find one in the Preferences folder already.
