| 724905 | 2008-12-02 02:33:00 | Hi I am about to start using a new PC and I want to be able to use all the custom emotes I loaded into Windows Live Messenger on my old PC. How do I transfer these to the new computer? TIA |

| 724907 | 2008-12-02 03:13:00 | Have you tried logging on at another machine, to see if they are actually stored on MS's server, and not your own machine? | jwil1 (65) | ||
| 724908 | 2008-12-02 03:40:00 | Have you tried logging on at another machine, to see if they are actually stored on MS's server, and not your own machine? Yep. I know from using multiple PC's in the past that they are only available on the PC they were installed on. However, I was hoping I could export/import them to my new PC as it is not just a temporary move. Otherwise, I'll need to re-add each one individually - guess that's how it's going to have to be.... |

For future reference, they are located in C:\Documents and Settings\%user%\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Messenger\xxxxxxxxxxxxx@hotmail.com \ObjectStore\CustomEmoticons |
