WLM9 Beta: Error while trying to save history

Messenger pops the question: says the log is getting to big and gives me an
option to save to a new file. So far so good.
When trying to save the file, an error popups:

"An error occurred saving the older messages for Rita was a diver in
D:\Documentos\Os Meus Ficheiros
Recebidos\pastilhaindiana404494617\Histórico\ritabessa1425124220 - Archive
(8).xml:

The parameter is incorrect.

Do you want to try again?"

If pressing yes, the main window freezes for a while and the nothing
happens. If I open the contact window and close it again, WLM tries to save
the history again.

I haven't confirmed, but I suspect that the messages are being lost.

Re: WLM9 Beta: Error while trying to save history

I am also seeing this. It needs a fix asap and a refresh of the app. I am going to have to deal with this with every contact soon, and it's going to get really annoying.
Support doesn't know what they are talking about when I message them. They give the dumbest replies you can possibly imagine.
