Registry Settings

Most of the options and features of Messenger Plus! are accessible from the various windows of the software. However, because we feel the need to keep a balance between the number of options offered and the user friendliness of the various preferences panels, some options are not presented visually in the software.

Add your own (advanced) personal touch

All settings added in "DefaultSettings" (instead of your@email.com) will be used when creating new profiles for new users. You can use this key to create default settings global for all future users (on a given Windows account). Messenger needs to be restarted for the changes to be applied.
