DRM component upgrade - Reclaiming licenses

In response to suggestions about the DRM component upgrade dilemma, I chose
to rename my DRM folder to DRMbackup.   That forced the Windows Media Player
to create a new DRM folder, populate it with the appropriate files and allow
me to retrieve the component upgrades that I couldn't before.  Unfortunately,
I don't have access to the licenses that I had before and my content provider
already said they wouldn't renew the licenses.
Now, I'm wondering if one of the files in my DRMbackup folder holds all my
old licenses.  If so, could I just copy that file into the new DRM folder and
have access to all my videos like before??   What do you think??   If it's
possible, which of the files would have that information?

Thanks for your ideas

Yes, you're right - I somehow got into the Mac group.  It makes no difference
to me, since I'm linked to all other Microsoft users through the DRM content
search.  Next time, I'll do better.
