Hi there !

This new version of plus! is really cool but  I have an ambarassing problem.
I was used to search a lot  a stuff in my archived conversations.
In the previous versions of Plus! I opened my archives thanks to the NotePad, it was clear and fast.
But now in this new verison I am  forced to use the new log viewer, but the problem is  it is very very VERY slow, it takes at least 1 minute to open it and most  of the time I have to kill the process cause it takes 99% of my UC.
When I search for a precise thing  in dozen and dozen of conversations which the avergae size is 2Mo it takes half an hour whereas  before whith the notepad it took me 5 minutes

So my question is : Is there a way to open new archives in the  old way ? with the notepad ?

Thanks.

Yes.

Plus! > Preferences > Conversation > Chat Logging > 'Save as plain text files' > OK

Well thanks for your answer but even if do that I am still forced to read my archived converssation with the LogViewer.exe.
When I try to read it  with the old version of MsgPlus! it says that thuis file hasn't been crypted with Messenger plus!
Should I uninstall the odl version onf Messenger plus! that is still on my computer ?

You can go to the folder that the logs are saved to and open the .txt file (ex. C:\Documents and Settings\CHRIS\My Documents\My Chat Logs\). They will open in notepad (the recent chats, that have been saved to notepad, after you applied the settings).

Err  ok thanks again, but that's not it, maybe I'm not clear enough (i'm not english) so I'll repeat.

I always keep all my conversations in archives since I have discovered Messenger Plus! and as I'm a bit paranoiac I always put a password on them so we are talking about PLE files.

Before WLM and WLM Plus! when I read my archives i do it in the NotePad and it looks like that :


It was not very good looking and not very practical but it was clear and fast.

Now since WLM I read my archives in the LogViewer, and it  looks like that :


LogViewer is very cool, good looking, practical but when I want to read a big archive (1,2 3 Mo) it is verryyyy very slow, it can take up to 1 minute just to show up text and most  of the time I have to kill the process LogViewer.exe (CTRL+ALT+SURP) otherwise my computer doesn't answer

So the only thing I want to know is if it is possible to display archived conversations in the NotePad as used to do untill now.

Thank you.
