WLM Settings

I am currently dual booting XP with Vista.

What I want to do is copy all my custom emoticons from the Windows XP WLM to
the Vista WLM. How can I achieve this?


Thanks.

Greetings,

If you're using 8.0, you have to use this tool to do it:

If you're using 8.1, you can simply copy over the folder by clicking Start, then Run, type:
%userprofile%\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Messenger
and click OK. Then open the folder corresponding to your e-mail address, then the
ObjectStore folder and then just copy the CustomEmoticons folder to the same folder on your
profile on the other installation.

Thank you. The second suggestion worked.
