How Do I Restore My Aim Buddy List After Accidentally Deleting It?

I've already checked the Application Data in My Document and Settings for userinfo.bag, but Aim was not in the list within the folder. The restore programs doesn't work for me.

    Before doing any of this, you have to make sure that you are signed into your AIM with the user name whose list you want to recover and also check that your "Show hidden files" option is on. You can see it in windows XP by clicking on Tools>Folder Options> View tab. The show hidden files option should be checked.

    Then in the Application data folder go to AIM----> screen name and then open userinfo.bag in word Pad or note pad.

    In this file among many other things, there would be the user names of your buddies and you can get them back by pasting them on your list.

    Good Luck!
