Hi!

I got twice an warning from the maintence center that there is an update for Messenger Plus, but there's nothing on the webside....


Grtzzzzz ( I'm sorry, it's in Dutch)

Messenger Plus! Live werkt niet meer naar behoren.

Patchou heeft een nieuwere versie van Messenger Plus! Live uitgebracht waarmee het door u ondervonden probleem wordt opgelost.


Klik hier om naar de website van Patchou te gaan voor update-instructies
Aanvullende informatie

Wij bevelen u aan contact op te nemen met Patchou voor meer informatie over de meest recente versie van Messenger Plus! Live, en voor ondersteuning als dit probleem blijft optreden nadat u de nieuwste versie hebt geïnstalleerd.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

What website are you talking about? What is the URL?

Please always provide full details when seeking help.
Your first posts in that other thread didn't mention the exact error message either, and now you forgot to mention what Windows you use (according to your other post it is Windows 7)

It is also always a good idea to state what exact and complete version you're using of Windows Live Messenger and of Messenger Plus! though.

Anyways, note that the official website is http://www.msgplus.net/ (and the old link should redirect to that too anyway). You can download the latest version from there.

-------

But please do not make duplicated posts anymore like that. Your previous posts were off topic and split to their own thread. So there was no need to make yet another new thread or to reply in that other thread.

Actually, it will in some cases. I think it is connected to Plus! subscribing to error report data data from Microsoft and all. Not sure where, but I have seen it before.

the reason that i posted here again is that the other was deleted..

Yes, i'm using win 7 and this is the second time i got the warning, i have the latest version and that's the reason for my question...

When i click on the line to solve the problem, i will be directed to this webside.

There's a little flag in my bar and there is the warning coming from.

cool....

But, now you say "When i get it again"... Does that mean that Plus! sometimes does work?

Also, in the mean time can you state the complete and exact version number of Messenger Plus! you tried to install? You can see the version number in the setup of Plus!, just above or just under the title image on the first screen.

Judging from that I'd say the link originally pointed to http://www.msgpluslive.com/crash.

However, that is not "nothing on the website" like you said before. The link redirects you to the official site where you can see a big download button for the new Plus! version.

Nor is it "this website" like you also said before. Posting "this website" without any more clarification means you refer to the these forums.

What is? The version you already got installed and which produced this error message, or the new version you have downloaded when you tried to fix the problem? I assume you mean the former, correct?

---

luckie70, with all respect, but can you please be more specific and accurate in your replies and answer the questions in detail! It is very annoying to constantly need to ask the same questions and to ask for more clarification.

---

Ah, thank you for the extra info .

Only thing missing is the complete and exact version of Windows Live Messenger and if you're using 32bit or 64 bit of Windows.



Anyways, to answer your question/remark: Win7 doesn't really know there is a new version though. That error is just a 'standard' message you get when there is some kind of dodgy error (now the only question remains is _what_ exact error/bug - and I suspect that's a hard one to crack). So, the message wasn't especially made for this version though, it existed already long ago. Proof of that, for example, is that the message still speaks of 'Patchou' who isn't affiliated anymore with Plus! and that it links to the old domain msgpluslive.com.

I'm on

Yes, because obviously this issue is related to Windows being 64bit, everyone using Win64 has it, and nobody on Win32 does...

---

But there is no indication at all this is related to 64bit, at least not this particular issue. It is a very rare issue. I've seen is been reported once before, not sure which OS version it was in that case.

* Menthix hopes Windows 8 will be 64 bit only so we can settle this debate once and for all .
