Chatlogs not saved
Posted by Aswin Coolsaet on May 8th, 2008


When your computer has been to standby / hibernate.
MSN will not save your chatlogs annymore.

I call that a bug.
Someone know how to solve? or how to report the problem?

thank you.

Greetings,

Well it only saves them when you close the conversation window -- if they're still open when
you standby, it won't have saved them. Is that what you mean -- or are you saying they're
not saving after the conversation window has closed after returning from standby?

Either way, if you want proper logging, I suggest you use Messenger Plus Live's logging
feature (www.msgplus.net) as it saves as conversations happen (not when they close the
window), retains all the formatting and sorts them properly.

both.
- if they're still open when you standby, it won't have saved them.
- not saving after the conversation window has closed after returning from
standby?

I don't want to use msn plus.
I just asked if someone know how you can change the way msn saves his logs.

or how to report the bug.
