Notes
- The settings stored on the server are not migrated through the scripts. The server stores the latest changes done to the settings and will be available whenever client connects to the server.
- You must sign out and exit Yahoo Messenger before migration on the source and the destination.
- You are recommended to restart the computer after migration.
- Scripts do not support the migration of hardware settings related to webcam. If required, this must be done under the path Start, Settings, Control Panel or under the path Yahoo Messenger, Preferences, Webcam, Camera Settings.
- The scheme of the Yahoo Messenger skin depends on the scheme of the operating system. Thus, to get the same look and feel as in the source, migrate the schemes settings under the path System Settings, Desktop Settings, Appearance.
- The settings under the path Help, Audio Setup Wizard are related to the system sounds. Use the System Settings, Sounds to migrate these settings.
Limitations
Following are the limitations:
- You cannot migrate the Content tabs, from all previous versions to 8.1, as they are now plug-ins whose settings are stored in an XML file.
- You cannot migrate the File Transfer settings, from all previous versions to 8.1, as the feature is not available in the destination version.
- You cannot migrate the List Text settings for the individual profile, from all previous versions to 8.1, as the feature is not available in the version.
