I got a software update from Yahoo Messenger hours ago and allowed it to update. After the installation, i discovered that my chat archives aren't available anymore! I tried downloading freeware to recover my chat archives but none of them seem to be working. Is there any procedure i can follow to recover my chat conversations?
Please help!!!
Thanks!
How do i recover Yahoo Messenger chat archives?
You dont say what the software update was - may be significant.
Have a look in your C drive - the messages are not stored on line but on your computer - not in the messenger software file but in the profile file - thats why they are still available when you upgrade messenger
My archive is stored here - (Vista)
%26gt; Start \ computer \ Local disc (C) \ Users\ xxxx (my name) \ Apps \ App Data \ Local\ Virtual Store \Program Files \ Yahoo! \ Messenger \ Profiles
I think (?) from memory I used to access them from my old XP computer
%26gt; Start /My Computer / C:drive / Program Files / Yahoo/ Messenger / Profiles / archive
If they are there and I am sure they will be - normal service will be resumed when you restart your PC.
