For chatlogs made with Plus!Live (any build):
Start > Run
type:
"C:\Program Files\Messenger Plus! Live\Log Viewer.exe" /changepwd="C:\MyLogs\contactemail@hotmail.com.ple" /newpwd="test"
<enter>
You will be prompted to fill in the old password.
(replace "C:\MyLogs\contactemail@hotmail.com.ple" with the full path to the logfile you wish to alter the pw for and "test" with your new password. Note: strings wich contain spaces need to be put inside quotes)
For more info see my reply to
can existing log files be encrypted?.
Now for logs made with Plus!3 it's a different story, you will need to decrypt them and then re-encrypt them with the new password. The logs will then not be readable by Plus!3 anymore, in other words if you still use Plus!3 at some point and log the chats Plus!3 will create a new log, not add to the one you altered. If this isn't a problem follow the next steps:
Decrypt:
Start > run
type:
"C:\Program Files\Messenger Plus! Live\Log Viewer.exe" /decrypt="<full path to log that need be decrypted>"
<enter>
You will be prompted for the (old) password.
Here the
DecryptAll bat file made by CookieRevised may be of help.
Re-encrypt:
Start > Run
type:
"C:\Program Files\Messenger Plus! Live\Log Viewer.exe" /encrypt="<full path to the log that needs encrypting>" /pwd="my password"
<enter>
Replace "my password" with the new password.
