If so, what Visual Basic C++ Redistributables do you have?
Here's my suggestion (this has worked for another user on these forums):
1.) Uninstall ALL of your Microsoft Visual Basic C++ Redistributables.
2.) Uninstall the entire Windows Live Essentials Package, then Restart.
3.) Reinstall Windows Live Messenger (Try running it to see if it works).
4.) Reinstall Microsoft Visual Basic C++ Redistributable 2008 and 2008 (SP1)
Hopefully that helps.
If it doesn't, please let me know and we'll suss out a new approach or any flaws in this one.
Remember to always install as an administrator.
I had the same problem and just did as was instructed and now it works. Just a question though do I need that Microsoft Visual Basic C++ Redistributable 2008 and 2008 (SP1). I don't know if the same problem will happen if I download that it again
