O.P. removing msn handwriting
can any body help me with this.......it keep's poping up with the this exact message
MSN HandWriting Error
Hello, you where redirected to this page because you have the MSN HandWriting Plugin for Messenger Plus! installed, but forgot something!
Please read this before pulling any conclusions about spyware or adware.
For MSN HandWriting to function correctly, it will need two things:
1.The Ink Redistributables
2.Windows 2000/XP/2003 or higher.
If your PC did not match this profile, you where redirected to this page. this is not malware/spyware/adware or whatever you call that crap, I did not use a MessageBox for a very simple reason: it would lock up your MSN Messenger login process, and you would no longer be able to log into msn!
Now, the next step:
How to fix this
Yes, this is obviously what you where looking for, so here's a quick run-trough to see what went wrong:
- Are you sure you are running Windows 2000/XP/2003 ? if not, proceed to Removing MSN HandWriting
- Are you sure you installed the Ink Redistributables for "All Users"? if not, proceed either to Removing MSN HandWriting or Installing the Ink Redistributables
- if those two questions did not solve this page, then I would have no clue what the hell you did wrong, and you'd probably be best off by Removing MSN HandWriting
Installing the Ink Redistributables
The Ink Redistributables is a package for windows to enable the handwriting control needed by MSN to work with handwriting
You can obtain it in three ways:
First thing to try is to see if you can find your Windows 2000/XP/2003 CD, and try to install "Microsoft Journal Viewer", to my knowledge this includes the neccesary components for the MSN HandWriting plugin.
If that did not fix it, or you where unable to find the CD, you can download a seperate Ink Redistributables package from one of the mirrors below Please make sure you install for "All users" and not for "Just me"!:
- Mess.be (ink redists are included in this packge)
- Messenger Plus! Plugins database (ink redists are included in this packge)
If installing the Ink Redistributables did not help, you should try to proceed to Removing MSN HandWriting
Removing MSN HandWriting
MSN HandWriting is a DLL that resides in your Messenger Plus! Plugins folder, usually located at:
C:\Program Files\Messenger Plus! 2\Plugins\
Before trying to remove the dll, make sure MSN Messenger and Windows Messenger are completely turned off, so also close them from your system tray.
After that, you should try to locate MSNHandWriting.dll in the above mentioned folder, and delete or rename it to something not ending in .dll
If you cannot find the dll, please make sure that system files are not hidden.
If Windows refuses to remove the dll, Please make sure with the task manager that neither of these processes is running: msnmsgr.exe, msmsgs.exe, msgplus.exe
If this did not yet fix your problem, you can try HandWriting DLL Uninstaller by Sk3tch...
If these steps still did not solve your problem, you can try to find help at the Messenger Plus! Forums
