Hey Guys,

You all know with Vista, Microsoft is removing the "My" prefix from Personal Folder. For example, "My Computer" is now simply "Computer," "My Pictures" is now "Pictures," and "My Documents" is now "Documents.

Messenger Plus! Live is an entirely new product, written from scratch. So how about using a new folder with "My" removed? E.g. "Chat Logs" or "Chats". I admit this suggestion can be regarded as one of the useless requests that adds no new functionality. But come on, for the hell of it, what do you think?

Cheers,

umm... you can change the folder where chats are logged =/

Think he means the default folder...but nah, not really necessary...

Although I personally don't like the "my" prefix either, Messenger Plus! Live (and Windows Live Messenger) is designed and aimed for XP users, not for Vista (although Plus! might partially be compatible with Vista). Since Plus! (and other professional programs) must follow standards as much as possible, the prefix will not be removed as it is there in XP by default.

If each program was doing what it wanted it would soon be chaos on your PC.

If a Vista version is released of Plus!, I'm sure that it will again follow Vista's standards, meaning no prefix. But until that time the prefix will be there...

(As said, you can change the folder's name from the default to your custom one at any time)

Note: no suggestion is too small for not suggesting it....

Appreciate your opinion there, CookieRevised.
DevilFX, yepthat's what I meant.

Yeah, I fully agree. When Vista comes out, this might be considered then.
