Windows Live Essentials Messenger crash (Vista)

Whenever I connect to Windows Live Essentials 2011 Messenger, it crashes on me.
What can I do to fix this?
I am running WINDOWS VISTA HOME not WINDOWS 7.

Hello

This forum is only specific to Win7.  To a question regarding Vista you question would be better served in the Vista forums locatedhere.  Since this is Windows Live you can also post your request here as well.

  • Windows Live Essentials 2011 is not compatible with Vista!

    For several months, I tried to download this updated stupid, but for some reason any, that I don't understand, Windows Live Essentials 2011 will not download to my computer that runs on Windows Vista 32-bit.  My anti-virus software is Norton and doesn't seem to block any downloads software whatsoever, unless he invites me to block first.  I tried to download it from my Windows Update, I tried to download official Microsoft Web site and I even tried a download offline on one of the links posted here, but it will not download.  If anyone can help me, I would appreciate it.

    Off-topic: can someone explain to me that, since Internet Explorer 9 download (I have since managed to get rid of and fortunately returned to IE8), why main my taskbar and windows icons disappear and not return when I leave my PC slowed down!

    Windows Live Essentials 2011 (QFE1) is entirely compatilble - with Vista SP2 (only).

  • Cannot find MSN Messenger in the new installation of Windows Live Essentials 2011.

    I had MSN Messenger until I get WLE 2011. Had a problem with my installation of Windows Live Essentials 2011. I had a full unistall and then re - installed. Finally got right. I am running XP, with upgrade to Office 2010. After installing Windows Live Essentials 2011, it shows I have messenger, but now I can't find a way to get it on my desktop or the taskbar. In msconfig, I show it as a startup program, but I don't see it anywhere. I can go to the C drive and find a folder in Program Files marked Messenger, but it does not help me. I have messenger when I log on Windows Live, but it's the only place where I have. I would like to come back to my office. How can I do?

    Maybe it's too late and you already found the solution, but go to your C drive on your computer, select program files, you will see the windows folder, open it and you'll see the Messenger, right click and create a shortcut on your desktop. should work

  • x 0 80190194 can't install Windows Live Essentials

    Hello.

    I have problems to install the latest version of Windows Live Essentials in Windows Vista.

    Previously, I had an older version of the pack, installed on 2009: Windows Live Mail, Messenger, photo gallery and Live Movie editor have been installed. I tried to upgrade and got the x 0 80190194 WaitforCatalog error.

    Uninstalled the previous version as stated on this forum: deleted all the programs of the Control Panel, removed the Live folder, restarted, updated, etc etc etc... Still have the same error.

    Now I'm stuck without all these tools and with an error I do not know how to handle.

    Did dig in the registry but... No matter what special tree should I remove it manually?

    Thank you.


    Found the solution! Thanks to another windows forum, the thing was to clear the fields of the IE Proxy settings. I was not using it, but despite being disabled, I still had a few values, which I deleted.

    Then, it worked.
