  • How can I stop Windows Live Messenger open at startup?

    Windows Live Messenger opens whenever I start my laptop, and it does not to her PIN on the bar of.
    Short of uninstalling this program (if that is even possible), how can I stop to open at startup and it detach all the time in the taskbar?  Thanks for your help.

    Hello

    I can help you to stop Live Messenger from running at startup but don't know why it won't let you it detach from the task bar. It should leave you with the right button and choose "unpin this program from the taskbar".
    On the login screen when messenger starts first, click Help on the right with the (?) and in the menu on the button, put a check mark next to "show the menu bar.
    OK - now you can access the menus at the top of the window. Go to tools-> Options.
    In the window that appears, click "sign in" on the list on the left and uncheck the box to the top right ("automatically run Windows Live Messenger when I log on Windows ')
    Next time you reboot, Live Messenger doesn't have to load at startup.
    It may be useful to uninstall and download again to see if there is a updated version that works better.
    Hope this will help

  • Qosmio G40 - no webcam with live Messenger

    Hello world

    I installed Win 7 on my Qosmio G40 instead of Vista and everything work fine except the webcam that does not work with live Messenger (only) no matter what I do (I tried several drivers, re-installed Win messenger live, close some processes, etc ;) I get this error message:

    '* Cannot start your webcam. "Check if it is not used by another program and retry."

    What the hell can I do to fix this?

    Hello

    I read a lot of discussions about the problems with webcam and messenger Ms.
    The problem with Vista has been resolved by the SP1 from Microsoft Update.
    Now, it seems to be that the same problem with Win 7 looks like a thing of compatibility

    However, because the message says that the webcam is used by another application, I suppose that some background processes lock the webcam

    You must remove webcam and messenger MS startup in msconfig.
    After that, restart the laptop and don t start the webcam software if you want to use it in Messenger from Ms.

  • Qosmio G40 - webcam and windows live messenger

    Well I've had this problem before and was solved with the installation of Service Pack 1. Well now it comes back to haunt me again! Windows live messenger does not register the webcam. The cam works and I am registered in the control panel etc. It is only on live messenger it does not...

    As described above, I have a Qosmio G40 with Windows Vista Ultimate and windows live messenger.

    Live messenger is set to allow phone calls and Messenger live in general - but there is no exceptions for webcam in the Security Panel?

    Looks quite simply that the cam is not lit - I have a black screen with static...

    Any ideas to fix this?

    * Download driver Chicony Webcam drivers from Toshiba Web site section was updated. If you can't find an updated driver, try a new driver of another model of Toshiba.
    * Install the Service Pack 1 of Vista, or Vista Hotfix KB934374: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/934374 (KB934374 is included in SP1)
    * Update your e-mail software (MSN/Yahoo Messenger, etc...)
    * If you have another program that can use the webcam (e.g. Skype), make sure that they are completely closed and not, sitting in the system tray.
    * Try to close the bar Assistant camera on the left side of the office.
    * To stop the Camera Assistant software from running at startup, run Regedit and delete HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run "Camera Assistant Software".

  • Qosmo G40 - built Chicony Webcam incompatible with windows live messenger

    I can't have the built-in webcam to work on my brand new G40 - 108 with Windows Live Messenger. I get the following message appears when you try to set up "audio and video setting" the Herald: "Windows cannot connect to this webcam. Close any program that may be using this webcam and restart the wizard."

    He connected with technical support from Toshiba, which were also unable to solve the problem. We have tried to disable both webcam at startup apps. If both executed at startup, the chicony software does not work.

    Does anyone else have this problem? I'll update this post if I get a resolution on their part.

    Thank you!

    Yes I have a solution.
    Remove the old software and the driver for the system.
    Go to the Toshiba European page and download the latest software for a chicony and the driver.
    Then install on the laptop and enjoy.

    Notes; Restart the laptop everytime after reinstalling the driver.

  • Antivirus program advised "Messenger\msnmsgr.exe: *:Enabled:Windows Live Messenger is changed to Messenger\msnmsgr.exe".

    Hello

    One of your antivirus programs? You should not have two or more on the computer much
    less running. They load the pieces themselves at startup and interfere with each other
    which can actually reduce safety. If its best uninstall all but one and run the removal
    Tool or look for the special removal for these deleted instructions.

    A program like Prevx - free which is put to work along side other antivirus programs
    is an exception.

    If you need search malware here's my recommendations - they will allow you to
    scrutiny and the withdrawal without ending up with a load of spyware programs running
    resident who can cause as many questions as the malware and may be more difficult to detect as the
    cause.

    No one program cannot be used to detect and remove any malware. Added that often easy
    to detect malicious software often comes with a much harder to detect and remove the payload. Then
    its best to be thorough than paying the high price later now too. Check with them to one
    extreme overkill point and then run the cleaning only when you are sure that the system is clean.

    It can be made repeatedly in Mode safe - F8 tap that you start, however, you must also run
    the regular windows when you can.

  • Windows live messenger stops working after a while

    Whenever I connect Windows live I get a message that this communication platform on-line Windows has stopped working and windows will close the program and I am started mid convo quickly. I do not know why this happens, I just reformat my computer and had to reinstall windows and have this problem since. I even tried to uninstall and reinstall new but no luck. Help, please!

    Hello AshNight,

    You should post in the Windows Live help as Mick has suggested. They will come back with help.

    However, in the meantime, you can do a repair on your own.
    Have you installed programs before this problem started? This may include antivirus, e-mail programs, etc.
    I've seen some posts where some products Antivirus and cause of conflict. So as a troubleshooting step, remove your antivirus (not just disable) and see if there is a conflict with your AntiVirus and Windows Live messenger. (Do not forget and don't go out when you do not have an antivirus installed on intenet).

    If that doesn't help, then do a clean boot and see if there is a conflict. You disable all startup items and services of third parties at boot. This method will help us determine if this issue is caused by a loader program or service.
