Force OCS to save conversation history into the Outlook folder immediately

How to force OCS to save conversation history into the Outlook folder immediately

There is a default time delay in saving OCS conversation history into the Outlook folder. And if we close the chat window before this, you may not get the conversation history updated on outlook.

To Enable Office Communicator Chat History in Outlook forcefully
Start -> Run->regedit and hit enter(you should logged into the system with a privilege who can edit registry values)
Use the registry setting in the path HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Communicator
If you couldn’t find "Communicator"  then add a new key with the same name and do the below steps

add a new DWORD ImAutoArchivingPolicy and put the value 1 or 0 as per your requirement (you can select decimal or hexadecimal )
1=archive OC conversations in Outlook

0=don't archive conversations in Outlook.
