Emoticons

Where are my custom emoticons stored? I don't want to lose them when I upgrade.

RE: Emoticons

You shouldn't lose your custom emoticons when you do an upgrade.

I can tell you where they are stored, if you tell me if you are using XP or
Vista, but I've never known a reason that you'd need to go back them up. I've
updated many times over the years and have never experienced any loss of
emoticons.

RE: Emoticons

Well I wanted a backup incase anything happened because I'm a bit of a
hardcore computing person, and will sometimes upgrade reinstall, and dual
boot many operating systems, including many versions of windows. I've found
some software which has backed it up anyway and will run on it's own to
restore them to whatever WLM I will be using when on whatever windows
version. Thank you anyway, I will upgrade WLM happily on this machine!
