How to save messenger profile for now computer by hockeyrick on 09-03-2008 at 12:16 AM

Maybe this has been addressed, but not sure.
I am going to re-install windows, and want to save my messenger live profile so I can just import it when I download messenger again.
Is this possible? Will it save all my custom emoticons, pictures, etc.?

If possible, can u five me the link or easy step by step instructions.

I hate to lose all my stuff and have to start from scratch everytime I switch computers(school, etc.)

Thx

This is the best I could find for you, http://msgstuff.com/downloads/file/148-windows-li...-emoticons-backup/

"Creates a backup of all your custom content, including emoticons, winks, backgrounds, dynamic backgrounds and display pictures.".

And yes, the website is safe, I'm a member of the staff there:P.

You also can use this one:

http://concon.awardspace.com/

it is pretty good and it saves the content in comfy .mco files, you can either save the whole content in a single .mco file or make different ones for each part of your content to backup.

The .mco files as you know are the files that are used to install the winks you download from the sites MSN has to sell it or offer some for free too.
