Backup your Msgplus data + source by Huuf on 09-15-2003 at 08:32 PM

This program updates all msgplus data what is in the registry

this is what you have to do.
Start the program:
click on the "Select Location" button
select the place where you want to place the back-up
Press OK
Click on the "Create Back-up" button
wait this depends on your computer speed and how much accounts you have on it
You get a message
Done.

To place a back-up back
double click the created reg file and say yes
Done


(needed a designer for this because i can't design)

[update]
You now can select which account you want to back-up or just all settings

I released the source

Excelent! Thx Huuf! :)(y)


RE: Backup your Msgplus data by Leif on 09-15-2003 at 10:03 PM

Very nice proggie. But what I'd REALLY like is a scaled down version of your back-up prog. One that only exports the custom names! Please!


RE: Backup your Msgplus data by Huuf on 09-15-2003 at 10:07 PM

Ok i will work on it, do you want a per account or just every account a different reg file


RE: Backup your Msgplus data by Leif on 09-15-2003 at 10:33 PM

At home I've given many of my contacts Custom names (if their names are "Who wants to have a purple helicopter?", "I've got a brand new mobile phone", etc!). And I really don't want to rename these contacts again in my Messenger at school. A reg file with all my custom names would be just great! Thanks in advance! :D

RE: Backup your Msgplus data by KnightieBoy on 09-16-2003 at 01:58 PM

well done Huuf :) (Y)


RE: Backup your Msgplus data by Huuf on 09-16-2003 at 03:13 PM

This one only back-ups the custom names
And sed i should release it also so here it is

It IS possible now. Update your version!
RE: Backup your Msgplus data by Huuf on 09-17-2003 at 02:16 PM

You can allready select it

This is no microsoft backupper
This is a msgplus backuper
Msgplus doesn't use the numbers

hmmm , seems awfully familiar to the one i built and gave the source code to , but i think mine was a little more.................. don't know how to put it , but maybe professional dont get me wrong tho , yours is still good since no one has said it doesn't work , like mine :) , heres a suggestion , either give the user the option for a file name... dont get me wrong tho , yours is still good since no one has said it doesn't work , like mine :)

see because it could be overwritten if they save it again

heres the link 2 mine for some screwed up reason, not everyone can get it to run, i am not sure why cuz there is nothing in the code that could cause it

Source Code of the program

Read readme.txt


RE: Backup your Msgplus data + source by Underlord on 10-05-2003 at 11:54 PM

Huuf, can you enable it so you can export to network shares and/or atleast maped drives...
because thats where i do my backup to....
and its easier than having to back it up to somewhere else then copy it across...
Thank You in Advance
