Sharing Folders by madsmcfc on 08-11-2007 at 01:45 PM
Can anyone tell me whether the sharing folders option has been discontinued? It seems to have disappeared altogether, or is it hiding somewhere else?
Some of my contacts still have them, but myself and others haven't.

Weird... it disappeared here too. 
I think I'll look for an explanation on some Messenger site...

Here, the WLM's shared folders didin't disappeared...
I think the problem is about the availability of the "function" like other games and "actions.....

i think they disappeared... i got the same problem today... me and everyone who talked to. all the windows live icons under the personal message disappeared: shared folder, live spaces, videocall... i think (and hope!) it's a microsoft problem... and i hope they're gonna solve it real soon...

The only ones that show for me atm are Email, Go to your Space and Windows Live Today.
Oddly enough Shared folders dissapeared completely everywhere in WLMsgr (8.5). The folders are still there tho, they are located at C:\Documents and Settings\<account name>\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Messenger\<Windows Live ID>\Sharing Folders (WinXP)
I think this would be a serverproblem, wich will be resolved soon hopefully...if it's anything else we'll find out soon enough.

It is, but it is country specific. This is why some people can see the icon and others cannot

Happy you guys have the sharing folders back............ummmm anyone seen mine?
They're still not here 
RE: Sharing Folders by High Speed Chaser on 08-12-2007 at 11:22 AM
It's sever-side problems. You just have to wait a bit longer. Just because it's fixed in one country/sever it might not be fixed in another country/sever.
Mine are back to.
RE: Sharing Folders by jannelle on 08-13-2007 at 04:41 PM
Okay ............... I'm being very patient and waiting for my 'shared' to re appear.
Is anyone else in the UK still having this problem or is it just
me *sigh*
