How can i lock my msn chat logs without being "ple" format like before by Volcano1985 on 11-03-2006 at 05:00 PM

Hello friends

Im using Messenger Plus 3.62.A few days ago my chat logs were become "ple" format and i couldnt understand why.

How can i lock them and read again using my password like before?

All encrypted Plus! Logs have the .ple format. You can read em as you always did (it should open a dialog box asking for your password).

Yes I know it.I used to read them by note-pad and with using my password bcoz they were note-pad but now they seem as "ple" format and when i click it says "choose a program to open the file "

What can i do ?

yes, that's an encrypted log file. You will need to open it with the plus log viewer and supply the decrypt password

But before i didnt need anything to read them .Why is it so now ?

Where can i find the "msn log viewer"?

It's the Plus log viewer.
Go to the Plus menu on the main WLM window, select Chat Log Viewer

That's Plus!Live only, this is about Plus!3 (wich doesn't have the Plus! Log Viewer).

Anyways Volcano1985, i just noticed the Plus! version you are using is not the latest Plus!3 version (latest is 3.63.148). Please download and install newest from http://www.msgpluslive.net/download/old/ and see if you can open your logfiles after that.

What happens when you doubleclick a logfile?


P.S. don't doublepost (2 post after eachother), use the edit button instead.

It says " u need a program to open this file , search on web or choose program in windows"

Files seem like this "xxx@hotmail.com.ple"

"ple" file need to be associated to Messenger Plus! to be opened successfully. The only thing needed is to reinstall Messenger Plus! from http://www.msgpluslive.net/download/ . If it doesn't work, then a software like Windows Defender may be interfering and unregistering the file type.

RE: How can i lock my msn chat logs without being "ple" format like before by Volcano1985 on 11-03-2006 at 07:54 PM

when i choose note-pad here

"MPLE1<<   <'Ȅ8 e  B&#305;y.....etc"

Besides it doesn't ask my password

What version of MSN Messenger do you have? Or do you have Windows Live Messenger?(8.0+)

To find out open your contact list and click help > about messenger and look for your version and build number.

RE: How can i lock my msn chat logs without being "ple" format like before by Volcano1985 on 11-03-2006 at 07:59 PM

Before it was 3.62 , now im using 3.63 that u suggested me

Could have msn program files been damaged ?

RE: How can i lock my msn chat logs without being "ple" format like before by Sunshine on 11-03-2006 at 08:07 PM

Volcano, tell us wich exact version of messenger you are using (i assumed it's not Windows Live Messenger as you are using Plus!3, Ver. 3 won't run on Live Messenger). You can find this by going to Help > About.

And whilst at that can you tell us wich OS (windows version) you are using aswell?

That is your Messenger Plus (MP!) version. MP! is an add-on to MSN messenger/WLM messenger

I asked what version of MSN/WLM messenger you are using? You can find out by the method i said before.



lol sunshine beat me :P
