Re: Organizing Emoticons

Greetings,

Well there are some tools, but beginning with Windows Live Messenger 8.1 you can simply back
them up yourself by copying the folder to another location.

You'll find the files here on XP:
\Documents and Settings\username\Local
Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Messenger\LiveID\ObjectStore\CustomEmoticons.

and on Vista:
\Users\username\Appdata\Local\Microsoft\Messenger\LiveID\ObjectStore\CustomEmoticons

Where username is your Windows username and LiveID is your Windows Live ID e-mail address.

Additionally, some of these folders will be hidden by default, to see them simply press the
Alt key on the keyboard in any Windows Explorer window to bring up the toolbar, click Tools,
then Folder Options, then the View tab, and then choose 'Show hidden files and folders'.
After click OK, they should appear with the other folders.
