Windows live messenger does not work with Windows vista on the desktop but on laptop
I tried to remove and then reloading the whole windows live package. But windows vista is blocking windows live Messenger every time dang. These are the claims that it is closed by the DEP program. Why is it that if it is part of windows or a windows program? And why my computer laptop isn't a problem with it, but in my office? And I tried to add windows live messenger in the list of DEP programs, as indicated by the stupid help window and he ALWAYS breaks it. is - anyone has a SOLUTION? I really want to chat with my friends on my desktop and I can't do it directly from the website (which is annoying). I even downloaded the new version of messenger with the same results of DEP crash.

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.
