    How to send a file.


    I'm not sure where to put this thread but I figured the General Section would do just fine.
    Although I know it's a 7 Forum, I have a another quick Microsoft question regarding Windows Live Messenger.

    Can some one tell me how on earth I send a file? Oddly enough, in settings there is a place to select the "My Received Files" location hitting that the file transfer capabilities still remain yet I can't find a way to send any.

    Thanks.

    *Running latest version of WLM.

    To send a file using Windows Live Messenger, open the Windows Live Messenger window, click on Actions, Send, and scroll down to: Send a file. Then follow the on-screen directions.

    Just open the contact that you want to send file ,and from the menu select File ->Send a single file

    With Microsoft, the one good thing is that there are usually many ways to skin a cat!
