I'm not familiar with Vista and I have the Vista Home Edition.  I would like to know where my custom emotions are stored - I don't know in which file or folder to look for them because I'm not familiar with Vista and it's not the same as the Windows XP Professional that I had previously.

Thank you.

Greetings,

Press the Start button and type the following:
%appdata%\..\local\microsoft\messenger
and press Enter.

Then double-click your Windows Live ID e-mail address, then ObjectStore, and there you'll find your CustomEmoticons folder.

This assumes you're using Windows Live Messenger 8.1 or 8.5 (which you should be on Vista).

Thank you so much!!

Am I supposed to type something where you have indicated the two dots (..)?  It does not seem to find this.

Thanks.

.. means to go back like C:\WINDOWS\.. would go to C:\
try
%UserProfile%\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Messenger\<your email address here>\ObjectStore\
