Windows Live Essentials (Beta) install problems

Following the crash of my MSN Messenger (which was after a recommended update; the "Windows Live Essentials")... On the list of recommendations for "problem reports and solution." I read about Windows Live Essentials Beta, which I've tried to install without success. Tried several times, with a variety of error codes, for which the recommendations didn't work.

Now, a new attempt for the 10th consecutive day, Live Essentials beta installer stops and says:

"Install Windows Platform Update;

My Windows updater does not offer such update and couldn't find where and how I could locate and install this update pre-required, before which it seems impossible to install Windows Live Essentials Beta (in fact to reinstall any version of MSN Messenger or Windows Live Essentials). My Windows Update is in automatic mode and constantly keeps downloading all important updates practically at the time of the question.

Must be very very thankful to your recommendations of the kind!

Please repost in the forums Live Essentals Installer Portal: http://windowslivehelp.com/product.aspx?productid=12.  The first page includes articles that can help you with your problem.  Otherwise, just go to the forums and post your question here using experts with this product.

Good luck!

  • Windows Live Essentials Beta - "could not find the entry point.

    I have completed, to the best of my knowledge, the updates that VISTA offers. And yet impossible to download Windows Live Essentials Beta.  It's problems for my computer by other means and it slows down.

    I did a great job keeping my computer clean of viruses and parasites. I did my due diligence on scans, defrags and keep clear of all dangerous downloads.

    It's time to transition my VISTA to Windows 7? More importantly,is it safe to do? I don't have $1,000 to invest in another computer?  Can I make the transition to Windows 7 without putting my computer at risk? Where should I start?

  • Windows Live Essentials is installed not on Windows 7

    It says that I have to take care of a number of things the one and only be uninstall Live Mesh Beta.  The only thing is, Live Mesh Beta is no longer on the computer, I have connected to two user account and have looked under list users and features of applications programs and Live Mesh Beta is no longer there.  My feeling is that there may be a registry key to hide somewhere, but where I have no idea.  If anyone has any information on how to get rid of the Live Mesh Beta application, that would probably solve my problem.  Again, I don't see it anywhere for any user under programs and features.

    Thank you for your help in advance.

    I tried to install Live Essentials 2011 several times without success. She always says a program is now settling, crt90-i386 error 0 x 80070643. I downloaded the full installer and also tried with no luck. I tried using the Task Manager to disable crt90-i386 nothing helps.

    [1] I then reached step 4 d of the party, and the link to the file it no longer works

    [2] I use System Mechanic Professional 10 for cleaning registry [but I just uninstalled]

    A1. Thank you. I didn't know that they had pulled the download. (Wonder if they'll ever get KB940065?)

    A2. I figured as well (where my question). I guarantee you that using System Mechanic, etc., has caused your problem!

    Had not uninstalled System Mechanic & assuming you would do backups of any changes that you made with this dubious utility, chances are it would have been well after had restored these backups (i.e., undo changes made).

    But if you have uninstalled System Mechanic, these safeguards have probably disappeared. IMHO, the only way you're ever going to get installed WLE 2011 now would be to do a clean install of Win7. If you want to help with that, please let me know.

  • 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!
