History path not checked by Baud on 09-22-2007 at 10:23 AM

Hello,

When the directory where is located Live Plus history files doesn't exist, it will be created. By example,
"C:\Documents and Settings\Baud\Mes documents\Mes Historiques de Conversation" doesn't exist, and will be created.

But, if you export these settings on a .pld file, the path is sucessfully saved. You import this file on other computer (or change profil name...), where the user "Baud" doesn't exist, Live Plus won't create "Baud" and "Mes documents" directories. No any errors appear, but all chats won't be saved...

I suggest to display a warning when saving/import settings, and lunch msnmsgr.exe (if the directory is located on removable disk or on network disk)


(sorry for my bad english :P)

Haaa... true. You're right, I'll have to fix that. From now on, ff the directory specified in the pld is not accessible, the default one will automatically be used instead to prevent this from happening.
