The Mail.ru Agent program, which many people use to exchange instant messages, by default stores the entire history of correspondence on the hard disk of the computer on which it is installed. If you have forgotten your password and cannot open the program, you can access the dialog history using additional software tools.
Instructions
Step 1
In early versions of messenger programs, all correspondence was kept in an accessible form, and it could be read without much difficulty using the standard tools of the operating system. The developers have corrected this misunderstanding, and now the history is stored in an encrypted file with the dbs extension.
Step 2
First you need to get to this file. To do this, open Windows Explorer by double-clicking on the My Computer icon. You can also launch File Explorer by right-clicking the Start button and choosing Open File Explorer.
Step 3
In the Explorer window, choose Folder Options from the View menu (Windows XP or earlier), or Folder and Search Options from the Organize menu (Vista and 7). On the View tab of the Folder Options dialog box, find the Show Hidden Files and Folders option and select the check box to activate it.
Step 4
Now you can start searching for the encrypted file with the history of the correspondence. It is located at C: UsersUsernameAppDataRoamingMraBase. Copy the file (there may be several) to your desktop or to any other folder on your computer.
Step 5
To open the file, you need to download a special program with which all saved dialogs can be read in a convenient form. As such a program, you can use Mail.ru History Reader, which can be downloaded on the official page of the application a
Step 6
The program does not require installation and immediately after downloading it can be run on your computer. To add a previously found file with the history of correspondence, click in the "History" menu and select the "Open" command. Specify the path to the file, after which it will open in the program, and you will see all the dialogs.
