RE: [Update]Backup Extreme! 1.2
Hi, I think this script is a great idea. Few suggestions though

  • Auto detect Windows (using build number)
  • Allow users tick options for what they want to back up (not everyone is going to want to back up all the options)
  • Scheduled backup
  • Save default location

Finally, I think you should investigate this topic. It scripts works very well for backing up CE (custom emoticons). It would also be very easy to reconfigure it to do DP (display pictures) as well.

Do the tick options and also store where the backup directory is after the user does it for the first time (a registry flag or something). Good luck!

Export, save, and backup are the same, no? Why does it say save where you import them?

The emoticons and all, I always could backup them just not put 'em back [Image: msn_sad.gif] So i never had put that feature in there [Image: xso_undecided.gif].

[Image: xso_huh.gif] I didn't get your point. Explain me.

RE: [Update]Backup Extreme! 1.2
Very nice script, however I have some suggestions:
  • Perhabs you can use ZIP packages? I have no idea if there's a way to pack/unpack ZIP files with scripts, but you can look for it. :P
  • Don't use toasts to notify the backup status. I tried to backup and it made my Messenger crash. What about a status window, with progress bar and description? Maybe you can also add a Cancel button there. ;)
    If you need help with that, just ask me on WLM. :)
But after all: very good idea and very nice made! (y)
