WLM Tips: Backup/Restore Custom Emoticons, Backgrounds, Display Pictures and Winks
I’ve encountered a problem with Windows Live Messenger where all my custom emoticons, backgrounds, display pictures and winks were “gone”. I was shocked!
Actually it’s still there in my hard drive. The problem is it that my current login no longer associate to that profile folder. So, how to restore back? These steps should get your old stuffs back.
- Go to your “Application Data” folder. Start > Run %appdata%.
- Now you will see a list of application data folder. Locate Microsoft > MSN Messenger.
- You should see a list of numbered folders. Now locate the folder that store your custom emoticons, backgrounds, display pictures and winks. (most of the folders is empty)
- Now, copy the whole thing inside that folder and paste it to your new profile folder. (see below)
- You are done, now you have your “stuffs” back!
