Uninstall Windows Live Messenger.

Can't find Windows Live Messenger icon in the startup under Windows Live programs. Live Communicator start I tried and it says install Live Messenger. Try to re-insalling Windows Live and Messenger is installed, it shows. Find the folder Messenger Live folder but cannot find an executable file of Messenger inside. Tried unstall after watching the fourms but all methods fail. The unstialler downloaded as noted in one of the fourm solutions fails also uninstall. Any ideas on how to force a reinstallation of WLM or uninstall?

  • How to uninstall Windows Live Messenger in Windows 7

    I need to uninstall Messenger. When I installed MSN and clicking 'custom installation' I hope I have the opportunity to choose, but they DO you have messenger. WHY?

    I disabled the 'sign' page in and in 'options', but again, the window opens and connect automatically when I log in MSN.  This is a nusance, why they just assume you want to converse. I never do.

    Help, please. From what I can tell from these forums (I've not seen one for Windows 7), it must be hard to do, and the first thing usually does not work. Could you please be patient with me to help me get rid of this?

    Thank you very much.

    PS RE: uninstall Windows Live Messenger
    I'm using Vista, but I do not think the court proceedings is any different.

    Go to programs and features > do you think Windows live Messenger or Windows Live Essentials from the list?

    If you see the Windows Live Essentials > right click > click on uninstall > watch the screen, it will ask you which program you want to uninstall > select Windows Live messenger. For the benefits of others looking for answers, please mark as answer suggestion if it solves your problem.

    Hi ryankay21

    Thanks for posting on Microsoft Answers.

    What Version of Windows are you using?

    It is not available to 'uninstall' from the control panel - uninstall a program?
    It may be listed under Windows Live Essentials.

    Please post back and let us know if it helped to solve your problem.

  • Can't install or uninstall Windows Live Messenger.

    Failed to install the new Windows Live Messenger. The error "could access the network location:. ' with the error number 0 x 80070643. Make the same mistake when you try to uninstall the current version of the same program.

    This problem has haunted me for a long time! But finally I found the solution... It's a problem with Windows Installer. Download Windows Installer Cleanup Utility and deleted all the entries of 'Windows Live '. After that, reinstalled WLM.

  • Now that Hotmail is part of Microsoft Outlook and Outlook is with Skype, it's ok to uninstall Windows Live Messenger?

    Each time, starting with Windows Live Messenger 'opens' but is more to accept my login information because Hotmail joined Outlook and Outlook is connected with Skype... so Windows Live Messenger seems to be a redundant nuisance (and Microsoft to my knowledge has not offered advice on this when they said Hotmail users we would be part of Outlook... etc)... so it seems reasonable to simply uninstall... but is it?

    Hello Brygge,

    If you run both Windows Messenger and Skype you should have a notification to upgrade your copy of Windows Messenger to the latest version of Skype. I know that I have received an and after upgrade Windows Messenger disappeared.

    If you don't have the notification, then you should be able to remove messenger through Control Panel > programs and features. In programs and features, look for Windows Essentials 2012. You will find the option to remove Messenger once you clicked Windows Essential 2012 and started the removal process. If you want other applications of Windows Essentials 2012 such as Movie Maker, etc. leave these options checked. Just remove the Windows Messenger tick mark and then proceed with the uninstall.

  • Uninstall Windows Live Messenger in Windows 7

    I followed all of the usual answers help on how to uninstall WLM but always come to a dead end. I go to start Control Panel - uninstall a program - click on Windows Live Essentials-, click on uninstall / change - select uninstall in pop-up dialog box - another dialog box box appears saying ' select the programs you wish to uninstall. Only programs with a check mark disappears '.

    Unfortunately for me, there is no program posted to be checked, so all I can do is press cancel. It's frustrating unbelievabley ! A resolution will be appreciated.

  • I can't install Windows Live Messenger

    Hello

    I uninstalled Windows Live Messenger (or MSN Messenger) other programs with the intent to sell this laptop. I have since decided to keep & tried to re - install Windows Live Messenger (or MSN Messenger). After downloading the Setup file of msn.com & it executes the screen Windows Live that rises & displays a list of the components of Windows Live that you can install, it says that the Messenger is already installed. I tried to download an old version, but it said I had a newer version installed & will have to uninstall it first. I've never had this kind of problem & am so without solutions. Can someone help me please?
