RE: [Help] Backup MP!L?
Do you mean as a auto-backup script?
I'm not expirienced with scripts but I think a program would be better (I can try to write one in C++) and set it as scheduled.
At least for the sounds and logs.
Preferences I don't know how to do.

Id prefer to know how to do it with JScript and not to get the code from you. Id like you to tell me how to do it. Also tell me where are sounds and prefrences saved by default.

Last time I checked the sounds were stored in:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Messenger Plus\Custom Sounds\ (When I used MP!3).
Try to search for "Custom Sounds" directory if not.

BTW, I read ur post and it doesn't said AUTO backup.

For the logs, just use the FileSystemObject to copy the folders. For the preferences, it'd just be a whole lot easier to use Plus' backup system.
