Feature Request: a transfer meter for windows live messenger

Hi,
Like transfer file in icq, a transfer meter show you time remaining for
the user, also icq provides 'resume' function for file transfer. Does WL
Messenger team have any plan to add such features in future release?

Greetings,

It's been suggested before and some really cool concept images have been made illustrating
this. Unfortunately, I don't believe so.

However, the "Sharing Folders" feature in Windows Live Messenger does provide resume.

"Sharing Folders" in WL Messenger only allow files store in c:\, hope later
release have an option select "Sharing Folders" in other directory.

I have no problems with sharing folders from other places, D:, E: & F: a
mix of pictures and text.

Hi,

Sharing Folders copies anything you want to share into a folder in your user profile (which
would be on C: in most PCs). Are you seeing something different?

Hi,

Yeah I hear you, I complained about this too.

It's not changing for 8.1, I can tell you that much.
