Try what Chris4 said, but also try cleaning all your settings. So:

Uninstall Messenger Plus! Live.
Uninstall Windows Live Messenger.
Restart your computer.

Make sure C:\Program Files\MSN Messenger and C:\Program Files\Messenger Plus! Live folders are deleted.

Go to Start > Run, type "%appdata%\Microsoft" and click OK. Rename the "MSN Messenger" folder there (your emoticons, DPs, etc. are here with changed file extensions).

Go to Start > Run, type "regedit" and click OK. Look for the following keys and delete them (you might want to export them first):
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Patchou
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Patchou
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\MSNMessenger
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\MSNMessenger
NOTE: Always be very careful when editing the registry, make sure you only delete those keys.

Reinstall Windows Live Messenger and Messenger Plus! Live, making sure you install the latest versions:
Windows Live Messenger 8.0.0792.00
Messenger Plus! Live 4.0.0.235

If it doesn't work, try restarting your PC again.

If it still doesn't work, you can restore your settings by importing the saved registry files and renaming the "MSN Messenger" folder in %appdata%\Microsoft back to its original name.

You mean in regedit? Those aren't files, those are registry settings.

To backup and remove HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Patchou for example, do this:
Right click "Patchou", select Export and save the file somewhere. Right click "Patchou" again and select delete.

Again, if you mean in the registry, it's ok, the uninstaller could have deleted them.

I will send send a scrnshot


RE: The Whole MP!L does nothing for me ??? by lopardo on 06-27-2006 at 02:37 AM

Exactly like that, select Export and save the file somewhere, then right-click it again and select Delete.


RE: The Whole MP!L does nothing for me ??? by Fuzzles on 06-27-2006 at 02:38 AM

Done :) Is that it? now i re install for the 5th time?


RE: The Whole MP!L does nothing for me ??? by lopardo on 06-27-2006 at 02:44 AM

Yes. I updated my post. Some users have reported that rebooting after installing worked, so you should also try that if it doesn't work right away.


RE: The Whole MP!L does nothing for me ??? by Fuzzles on 06-27-2006 at 02:48 AM

Re-installing now........................................................


RE: The Whole MP!L does nothing for me ??? by rekzai on 06-27-2006 at 02:59 AM

RE: The Whole MP!L does nothing for me ??? by Felu on 06-27-2006 at 02:59 AM

Go to C:/Program Files/MSN Messenger and delete "riched20.dll" if its there ;).


RE: The Whole MP!L does nothing for me ??? by lopardo on 06-27-2006 at 03:07 AM

Erm, if you tried uninstalling and removing the folders before, then you already had removed that file if it was there. If you followed my steps, then my solution worked. :P

That file is automaticly genrated after reinstalling messenger (Due to Smile Central or other software from it). But when i told him @ messenger he had removed Smile Central and hadnt deleted the file named "riched20.dll".

Oh, ok then. :P

Patchou is working on a new version of Plus! Live. I had that problem but after the new BETA it fixes everything!
