Saving correspondence from VKontakte to your computer

In five minutes I saved the dialogues in a convenient form. I'll be glad to share. And I’ll save you time and write a post. So, how to save a VKontakte dialogue without third-party applications and services?

To get started, you will need OpenOffice Calc, Excel or any spreadsheets. Open your VKontakte dialog in the browser. Let's scroll through it all to the beginning. Press the key combination Ctrl+A (select all), and then Ctrl+C (copy everything). This moment is just visible in the screenshot above. Don’t be alarmed that we are copying the entire page - we can easily remove the garbage.

Attention! If the dialogue is large enough, then it is better to paste it into Notepad first. Then we copy the contents of Notepad into a spreadsheet. If you copy a large dialog directly into Excel, it will freeze for a very long time, if not completely.

Launch OpenOffice Calc or Excel. Paste the copied dialogue with garbage into the spreadsheet. This process is shown below.

Now let's start cleaning the table. We delete the top lines, move the column with the date to the left, and move the column with names to the left until you are satisfied with the placement of names above the text of the messages. After that, I ended up with an empty column “C”, which I deleted. Here you can do everything to your taste, as it will be convenient for you to read.

This is what happened to me.

Not bad already. Nothing extra. Now you can save in any format.

Why is it better to do it in a spreadsheet rather than in Word or OpenOffice Writer? Because the formatting in the table does not work. If you save (by copying and pasting into Notepad) this dialog later as a simple text file, the formatting will remain as an easy-to-read dialog.

This is what came out.

This way you can not only save VKontakte correspondence, but also entries from other sites and services.

Good luck, and I’m off to write a post about the most economical shopping.

Save it as a memory, share with friends and leave comments.

What data does VKontakte collect about users?

Absolutely all information posted by people on the VKontakte platform is collected and used by the social network to improve its services. The data of social network users is also transferred to advertisers, but in anonymized form. According to official statements, the service tracks the following:

Location - based on information about the user’s location (which is available in the profile description and tracked through the IP addresses of the devices used by the person), VKontakte displays targeted advertising and posts that are most interesting to the user (according to the calculations of a special social network algorithm). With the person's permission, the social network receives more accurate information about the user's location through GPS and wireless networks.
Everything that is entered during registration and indicated in the profile description - first name, last name, place of residence and other registration information (entered by the person) is a mandatory social component of VKontakte.
Messages - the social network stores the names of participants in dialogues and conversations, the date and time of sending messages, their number and content (full text of messages). VKontakte did not explain why this is necessary, but we can say with confidence that at least to comply with the “Yarovaya Law” in force in the Russian Federation.
Visit history and data about users’ devices - VKontakte sees the operating system of the gadgets from which people log into their accounts, browser, provider name, IP address and similar data. With the consent of users, the social network gains access to the devices’ microphone, their cameras, phone book, installed applications and notifications. Why this is needed is also not explained.
All information transmitted by third-party services and widgets is necessary for the operation of VKontakte widgets on third-party sites (for example, for authorization and use of the “Share post in your profile” function). The data collected in this way helps the social network improve its advertising platform. To display targeted ads, only anonymized information about users is transmitted to advertisers.
History of publications and subscriptions - “VKontakte” stores information about who and when you liked, what communities you subscribed to, what posts you published, what you commented on, who you added to “Friends” and removed from them, what media files you posted, and also call history. The social network did not say why this was needed.
Photos and videos in which you have been tagged - apparently only if the user has confirmed their affiliation with a specific media file. This data helps the service improve personal recommendations and serves to develop the social component of the platform.
Bank card information - if you used VKontakte payment services, the social network stores the first and last digits of your bank card. This is done to increase security - a specific payment card is “linked” to a specific user.
Data from third parties - for example, if information about your profile is in your friend’s phone book, and he allowed the social network to access it, then VKontakte will collect the available information about you and combine it with the existing one.

How to save message history on VKontakte: instructions

The need to save the history of communication with certain people often occurs among VKontakte users. But not everyone finds ways to do this. Simply copying all messages with the user results in a mess, after which the information needs to be processed and edited. How to do without these procedures? Is there another way to save the dialogue?

Ways to copy correspondence

If your dialogue with the user consists of a dozen messages that you want to save on your PC, then you shouldn’t bother. Select everything with the mouse and press Ctrl+C. Then open Notepad or a Word document and press Ctrl+V. The text appears in the document.

You can also use OpenOffice Calc or Excel instead of Word. The fact is that after copying and pasting, not only the dialogue with the user will be saved, but also unnecessary information. It is easier to get rid of garbage in a table than in a text document. But formatting for reading dialogue is more convenient in a text file such as notepad.

But if you need to download the message history of all users, then manual copying will not do the job. The VkOpt application will come to the rescue.

This application is designed to provide VKontakte users with access to advanced features.

Thanks to this application you can manage your messages. There are two lists of messages in the program:

How to download VK data archive?

The process of downloading personal publication history information is extremely simple, but account owners should prepare for the fact that it will take some time.

go to the social network and log in;
open a special section “data management procedure” (https://vk.com/data_protection?section=rules&scroll_to_archive=1);
Scroll to the very bottom of the page and click the link provided there;
check the boxes next to the necessary information that must be contained in the archive (services, widgets, bank cards, place of residence, last name);
click the “send request” button;
confirm the actions by entering the password from your own account;
wait to receive a message from the administration notifying you of the archive request (in private messages);
after creating a folder with files, a second message will be received with a link to our download page;
by clicking on the link, the user will only have to click a button that starts downloading the information;
and confirm your actions by entering a special code that will be sent to the phone linked to your profile.

copy correspondence from contact

there are kilometers of correspondence in contact. how to copy message history to computer? “Copy-paste” is not an option, because when I select text, the page does not scroll down, and copying fragments can take hours. So far I have googled a way to save the page, but in the form of text it turns out to be a solid page, without any breakdown into dialogues, and when saving the page in full form there are no dialogues at all, a blank page. The print screen is inconvenient. I think I'm missing something obvious.

Is it possible to send all correspondence at once?

Forwarding one or more messages to other users using the scheme discussed above is a simple task that will not take up any time or effort. But, if you need to send, for example, all correspondence, such manual selection can take a lot of time, so this method is considered inconvenient for large volumes. Are there alternative ways to forward correspondence? How to send a complete correspondence to your friend? Let's consider 2 options step by step.

The first option for forwarding correspondence is sending screenshots of messages. However, if the dialogue is not small, you can get confused and have to number all the picture files to maintain consistency. Moreover, this is not a very fast and convenient method. You can also follow the principle described above, copy messages and use the forward button, but again, this takes a long time and is not suitable for long correspondence. The second option is much simpler. Let's consider it.

For reference!

You can forward such correspondence saved to a file, not by attaching a document, but simply by selecting and copying the text in the editor. This option is simpler and the user to whom the dialogs are sent will be able to immediately see them in an undistorted form, without opening the files.

How to save a VKontakte dialogue

Often, users of the largest social network need to share a certain dialogue with someone. Today there are applications that help in this matter. However, we will look at the easiest way to save a conversation without using third-party services.

To save the dialogue, we will use the standard program that comes with Microsoft Windows. You probably already guessed that we are talking about everyone’s favorite standard Notepad.

Open the VKontakte conversation you want to copy in your browser. After that, select the dialog with the mouse and copy.

Your copied text is now on the clipboard. Let's move it to Notepad. As you can see, we get a completely “readable” dialogue that can be easily transferred to other users by copying it from notepad. By the way, in the notepad you can edit the dialogue format to your taste.

Any correspondence on VKontakte can be transferred to an easy-to-read format and sent to another user. As you can see, there is nothing complicated about this.

We also note that if the correspondence is small and fits on one screen without scrolling, you can simply make a print screen and send the dialogue as a picture, which is very convenient. We described in detail how to make a print screen in other articles.
