The easiest way to copy emotion sounds is to create a soundpack, and then re-import this on the new computer.

However, such as in the case of the thread starter where you did not create a soundpack, but still have access to the old hard drive you can use Messenger Plus! Sound Library Fixer.

You need to copy all the .dat files from the custom sound folder on the old hard drive to the custom sound directory on the new hard drive and then run that program. It will then re-add all valid sound files back into your sound library.

On XP installations the custom sound directory is located in "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Messenger Plus!\Custom Sounds"

On Vista the directory is "C:\ProgramData\Messenger Plus!\Custom Sounds"

(replace C:\ with the appropriate drive letter)

Hope this helps

Edit: Some folders may be hidden, in which case you need to unhide them using Windows folder options (XP: Tools>Folder Options>View>Show hidden files and folders, not sure of how to do it in Vista but it should be similar)
