    Having trouble with Yahoo archive that. Files
    Hello, I recently reformatted my computer, I saved all of my archives from Yahoo messenger. When I try to open an archive file it tells me my computer doesn't have the right program to read it with. I've tried opening them in both word and notepad. It just gives me codes. When I open it in Word it gives me everything like this. "E" Is there any way I can read these files, or is there just absolutely no way I can read them? Thanks a lot:)

    As these files are saved with Yahoo messenger you'll need that to open it.
