  • Cannot install windows live messenger, wlsetup is not a valid win32 application or wlsetup is obsolete!

    I tried to download windows live messenger after a new new copy of windows xp.
    I received the following error message (wlsetup is not a valid win32 application), I realized the the version I'm trying to install is only supported by windows 7 or windows vista. So I tried to download windows live install for xp, but I received the following error message (use windows update to download the latest version of windows install, then try again.) Your version of windows install is obsolete. MSI audit: 0 x 80280002). Now I'm stuck!
    I couldn't find a soluton in the forums of Windows live.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Windows install is what is used to install programs. Have you checked if there is an update as they said and you have the latest Service Pack?

    You can answer these questions then try this:

    1. go to this site - http://ninite.com/
    2. scroll down a bit to mail and put a check mark on Messenger (2009).
    3. scroll to the bottom of the page, and then click Get Installer.
    4 run.

  • Cannot install Windows Live Essentials Error: 0 x 80190194: WaitForCatalog

    Hey all, I have just installed a fresh Windows 7 on my PC, everytime I try to access windows live essentials (only for the mail app), I get an error

    Could not install programs

    An unknown error has occurred.

    Error: 0 x 80190194

    Source: WaitForCatalog

    I had the same system running windows 7 with windows live essentials befor without problem. and now I can't seem to solve this problem at all, any help would be greatly appreciated :)

    I have had the same problems, many people ready & forums where this problem is reported all trying to find a solution for me.  After trying all suggestions on all the forums that I could not even install and subsequently Live.

    I found a simple solution that can work for others too.  I ran an installation of older LiveMessenger (v8.1), which has held own.  Launch LiveMessenger and it forces an update update to a later version, which gives options to install the other components of Live Essential Suite too.

    I even was invited to patch for the 2011 version but I don't know it is only a matter of time and especially I have Messenger back!

  • Installing Windows Live Messenger problem (hr:0x8104000d)

    Hello world
    Yesterday I installed my Windows 7 Home Premium OS using the costum install because I wanted to whipe clean my Dell Inspiron 1440 laptop. And everything works so far, except that I can't install Windows Live Messenger.

    I tried to download the installer from explore.live.com essentials, microsoft.com and by using the Windows Update, but it does not install. I looked and tried to run the Windows Live installer about 6 times. And it's always the same thing. About 98% is to install the Windows Live Call, and when it reaches 100%, it cancels.

    I also tried to download the Msn Messenger 7.0 and tries to update the software. For the record, I can't even use the Msn Messenger 7.0 because it says I need to update. And I can't update it because apparently I am not connected to .NET Messenger Service. I tried to test the connection, and it has failed due to an error of invalid character script. After that, I checked the advanced settings and ran tests; My TCP and HTTP Proxy connection works.

    I am currently using Kaspersky Internet Security and I even checked to see if the firewall was blocking it, but the installation of Windows Live is considered a trusted software. I even tried to disable my firewall to see if it makes a difference. No luck so far.

    The error that says:
    Check that you are connected to the Internet. You cannot download Windows Live programs unless you are connected to the Internet. HR:0x8104000d

    I honestly do not understand. I am currently connected through a LAN network with an ethernet cable, but I also tried to unplug and connect to the internet via the WAN.

    The only cause of this problem that comes to mind, it is that I had to uninstall the Dell Wireless WLAN Card Utility utility before I could uninstall Windows 7. But I have already run all Windows updates. Not that it makes all the difference because I was already connected to the internet.

    Any ideas on how to fix it?

    UH well Windows Vista OS came with my laptop and I have improved with the installation of costum (new installation) to set up my Windows 7 operating system. If everything has been wiped clean. Obviously for this reason that I don't have windows live messenger installed. If I had simply updated the operating system, all my files are remained intact. My Windows 7 operating system is 64-bit, and yes it is compatible with my computer. As I said above, everything else seems to work.

    As for Kaspersky Internet Security, it is supported by Win7 64 bit.
    Reference: http://usa.kaspersky.com/products_services/internet-security.php?icid=50000028

    A Norton Internet Security trial came pre-installed with my laptop, but I removed this month there are using a Norton removal tool. Not that it matters now, since I wiped clean my drive hard when I installed Windows 7.

    And as for the older versions of Windows Live Messenger, I think I mentioned on my first thread I knew that they did not work. Still, trying to update an older version seemed to be a good idea since I kept not install it. However, which also did not work.

    Anyway, thanks for clarifying your first answer. I'll post this same thread on the discussion Forum to see if anyone there can inspire some light in my situation.
