For Messenger Plus! Live

Open your registry editor (Start > Run > Regedit) and delete
HKCU\Software\Patchou\Messenger Plus! Live\<your_account>\Preferences\PreferencesLockPwd
or clear its binary value, this will disable the protection...

After that, you can access the preferences again, even without restarting MSN Messenger or Messenger Plus!.

But note that you need to go to the preferences again and disable the option to lock the preferences with a password, as this registry key will not delete the internal checkmark remembered by Plus! but only the 'password' that was in place.


Dear Spunky, you sound like you are a very knowlegable computer user which I am not.  Thank you and if you ever have the time, could you explain what to do to fix this pretending I am brand new to computers and a 95 year old grandma?
