new plus not working by zeus6996 on 03-17-2005 at 05:16 AM
Is anyone else having problems installing Plus! 350?
I have the Private beta... does this make a difference?
RE: new plus not working by Caboose on 03-17-2005 at 05:18 AM
The private beta shouldn't affect anything. What's the error you're getting?
RE: new plus not working by zeus6996 on 03-17-2005 at 05:26 AM
plus is not working at all
when i open msn there is no plus file option
I've tried installing plus a couple of times and I tried restarting my computer

RE: new plus not working by Ahmad on 03-17-2005 at 05:50 AM
I had that problem... I installed it, it restarted my Messenger and Plus! wasn't there...
So I checked the task manager to see if Plus! was running, it was.... so I exited Messenger and launched it again, all was fine.
RE: new plus not working by zeus6996 on 03-17-2005 at 05:54 AM
i did that too.. it didnt work...
then i uninstalled msn and plus and reinstalled it on the public beta (7.0.040something).. thats not working... does anyone know where i can get the lastest version of windows messenger... i think its 5
now plus is showing up in the file bar but a box keeps poping saying that it needs to be restarted constantly

To bad XP by default only sees 2GBs.
Do you constantly get what we call a Recovery Window with 3 options? Have you tried to have Plus! fix the problem with that? The other thing you can try is in the Plus! Preferences > General > Miscellaneous > Force Messenger Plus! to load when computer starts. then restart the PC.

Do a complete uninstall of Plus! and its Plugins, or rename the Plugins directory and Restart MSN Messenger (Note MSN Messenger has to be closed before doing this).

The moral of this thread is that one must uninstall Plus! before installing the new version... I think it's a conflict with the plug ins..
I believe the "Hopper" plug in is not compatable with this version... someone check and correct me if i'm wrong...

Just start up Windows Messenger and auto-download it or go to Microsoft.com

, but so far I have seen nothing more then incorrect suggestion or stuff which is not related at all in your post 
. If you don't know the answer and if you didn't tested it out yourself to make sure it works, then do not post! (even the links you provide to back up your suggestions are not correct 
)quote:If Plus! doesn't even work on the public beta's then it is something on your side that is wrong, not Plus!.

Anyways, if it is a conflict with plugins, then simply disable the plugins. If it works then (provided you have a up to date healthy system), then enable each plugin one by one (and each time restarting MSN Messenger) until you find the bad plugin.
Note: Hopper is compatible with Plus! 3.50 and MSN Messenger 7
