RE: install data error
Uninstall what you can of Plus!. It seems you've done enough damage to it by deleting the folder it was in and not doing a proper uninstall.

Clear your cache and download Messenger Plus!. Then install it.

RE: install data error
does the "patchou" registry key still exist?

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Patchou i think is the right one  if so Delete the Patchou registry Key

O.P. RE: install data error
I have uninstalled it and also deleted settings and plug-ins, after that I cleared cache and put the checkbox that asks whether I want to delete off line files too to on/true and restarted pc because some files were locked, eventually I installed it again but no Messenger Plus .

Animal said I had to delete a registy key but I don't understand how to get on that link; I tried to run HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\ to open folder but my pc didn't understand, maybe the directory is longer at beginning.

Update of second alinea:
run regedit and then further; (default)=(no value). But I haven't deleted that yet.

That key doesn't need deleting.

RE: install data error
Now you did download it again?

If so, what happened? Were there any error messages? Anything?

Might be a good idea coz from my experience on the net/computers, a Corrupt registry key can cause issues

RE: install data error
In this case though, a corrupt key wouldn't affect the installation at all.

no matter what you delete, change, mess up or whatever, a 'corrupt' registry key in Messenger Plus! does not effect the installation of Messenger Plus!, as raceprouk has said.

I might for other applications, but not for Messenger Plus!; the installation of Messenger Plus! does not depend on what is stored in the registry.

Yes, I executed the steps and I downloaded it again before writing the last reply and there was one message that some files were locked and would be deleted after restarting windows as I said and when installing the install-data-error occured ,

The only difference this time was that I couldn't find messenger plus in the program files at all after an unsuccesful installation.

15-jan-05
I tried it again but this time I didn't close messenger off before installing(right mouse, last button below) and ??? it installs perfect!
Maybe this is not the reason but I'm happy it works.

Thank you all very much for helping me! Sorry to have troubled you! I hope LoftHer who had the same problem also has succeeded to install. (And sorry for my bad English.:P)
