Hello,
I recently updated nowsms to version 2020.

But I am unable to edit the username field. The field does not allow me to change. Is there any way to be able to change users' username?

Thank you.

Hi,

It would be necessary to create a new user account and delete the old account.

I need the customer history. I simply want to change the username. In the old versions this change was possible!

Sorry, that capability did exist in previous versions, but it was not reliable.

What information are you trying to preserve?

The only thing I can think of is the past statistics for messages sent. This information is contained in the *.QTA files in the USERS/username directory, and can be manually copied between accounts if this is what you are trying to preserve.

What are .QTA files and how can we read them? I try to open it with a text program (notepad) but I get confused text.

Which program is suitable for opening * .QTA files?

These are binary files specific to NowSMS. They are where NowSMS saves statistical information about the number of messages a user account submits.

You would need to write a program to read them. Basically, it contains a binary array of the number of messages sent by that account on each day of the year. There is a 32-bit (4 byte) value recorded for each day of the year.
