| | Re: See background pic for a msn live 8.5 Greetings jerv, To get to the folder containing these files, go to the following folder (depending on Windows version): On XP: \Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Messenger\LiveID\ObjectStore\Backgrounds. and on Vista: \Users\username\Appdata\Local\Microsoft\Messenger\LiveID\ObjectStore\Backgrounds 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. -- Jonathan Kay Microsoft MVP - Windows Live Messenger MSN Messenger/Windows Messenger MessengerGeek Blog: http://www.messengergeek.com Messenger Resources: http://messenger.jonathankay.com (c) 2008 Jonathan Kay - If redistributing, you must include this signature or citation -- "jerv22" <guest@xxxxxx-email.com> wrote in message news:dc1633211e4ee501f375a92544e6c435@xxxxxx-gateway.com...
