I see it in my windows 7 installation. Click on your username in the start menu and navigate to the folder. Also, I think you might need to restart the messenger to see it. Hope this helps

Do you know how to transfer archive from Vista to Window 7?
I got new laptop with Windows 7 and I tried to copy, but there is no “Program Files” folder in the AppData/Local/VirtualStore
I tried to copy it there, it won’t show up on my YM, it just show the new message archive.

Hi Anand,

Thanks for tips. Those were really helpful. But my problem is a diff one. I am using multiple laptops and desktops and everytime i login to different machine the chats which wer done from the other one is not recorded…
Is there anyway to unify the chat msg archives as in gmail. We could chat in any machines and the chats are saved in gmail. IS there something like that in yahoo ? Thanks in advance for your help.

Anand,

I was wondering if we can archive the YM Chat in windows mobile 6.1 (HTC HD to be precise). Since there’s no downloadable YM for mobile…

thanks a lot

Hi… when you said:

“step 3. If you have multiple ids, you can see them there, copy the ones you need and put it on some other folder, like the desktop or the like. Remember to Rename it before saving…..”

which one do you refer to? meaning, which particular folder do you want to be renamed?
- is it the folder where you are saving the “profiles” folder to?
- is it the folder names on the profiles, like the yahoo name/s inside the profiles folder?

Thanks..
