Miranda: from Version 0.4.0.3 to 0.6.8 problem

Hi,

Didn't know I was so far behind. Smile

I backed up the entire old directory structure by renaming with an "OLD" suffix before the dot.
I installed 0.6.8 onto the USB drive into its own new folder and then tried to follow instructions to copy the "settings" directory from old to new. I can't find this so-called settings directory.

thanks,

p.s.: the new install is unicode. the old is ansi?

Reinstall

With ansi. That will tell you if it is just the programming language that is the issue.

BTW settings instructions are here: https://portableapps.com/support/miranda_portable#local_settings

I finally got it. Had to

I finally got it. Had to copy my dot DAT file into profiles directory. dot DAT was not in the same folder as in the new software. what a hassle...to hunt this down with a posting, some reading on installation, and then 15 minutes of trying copy/paste with reading... Sad
