Shared Folders by Kally on 01-24-2009 at 01:18 AM

Hi All,

I downloaded the new version 14.0 but now I can't find my shared folders - where would I find those now??

Thanks so much.

Sharing Folders has been removed from Messenger now. Instead it is using Windows Live SkyDrive.

so where did all the pictures go and how do I get Windows Live SkyDrive?  Is it the same thing or does everyone on my contact list see the pictures?

Thanks.

Erm …The pictures are not gone, they are stored in a hidden location on your computer. Sadly, I have not discovered the location of the Sharing Folders yet.

SkyDrive can be acessed from http://skydrive.live.com, you can create folders in there and set permissions for who can view what folders. :)

P.S. ryxdp, your signature is ace! :-O

A Simple search of these forums under the words "Sharing Folders location" seems to bring up a number of results. One of which says that it is listed under "C:\Documents and Settings\<WINDOWS ACCOUNT USERNAME>\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Messenger\<messenger address>\SharingMetadata" :)
