Backing up Emoticons and Winks by ILuv2Chat on 03-09-2008 at 09:43 PM

Hi...Am new here :)..

I am wondering if you can back up saved Emoticon and winks that I have added from other users, Whenever I have had to reinstall Vista I have lost all my emoticons and winks which is a real pain as I have to get them back from my contacts...It would be so good to back them up...Is there a way? please could you advise me how..Thanks in advance :)

Try using MSN Backup :)

If you are using WLM 8.1 or above remember this:

Hi Thanks for your help, I have backed up my emoticons etc within this program MsnBackUp....Excellent...

Just one other question please....If and when I have to wipe my laptop in the future,obviously I will lose this program and have to reinstall it, Will my backed up emoticons etc still be there within the program?? I hope I have put my question across to you correctly...:)

if by "wipe" you mean re-format, then no, everything on that hard drive will be wiped. it is a good idea to backup all important files before reformatting (including your emoticons)
