Part of your Messenger client cache may be corrupted.

To attempt to fix, close down Messenger if it's running, click Start, then
Run, and type the
following:
%userprofile%\contacts
and click OK.

If nothing appears in the folder, click the Tools menu, then Options, then
View tab, click
'Show hidden files or folders' and click OK. Once you are able to see the
folders,
right-click the one that corresponds to your Passport and choose Delete.

Next, click Start, then Run, and type the following:
%userprofile%\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Windows Live Contacts

Then remove the corresponding folder again in this folder.

Then restart Messenger and try signing in again.

nope, cant get it,

screenshot possible?

i think they mean the start button in windows ( bottom left of display )

OH!!! RUN! omfg! now i fucking get it, thanks people, i applaud you



i thought you meant start in like WLM itself,

ok, i got nothing, give me exactly what i have to do

Here's the page for solution. Lazy to read or go there? Read Felu post for it.

I guess some screenshots should help there.
Step-by-step explaination (Close your messenger before):
1. Click Start. Screenshot
2. Click Run Screenshot again
3. Type: "C:\Documents and Settings\<TYPE_YOUR_USERNAME_HERE>\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Windows Live Contacts" Screenshot
Don't forget to replace <TYPE_YOUR_USERNAME_HERE> by your computer username!!!
4. Delete all the files that you see in that folder. Screenshot
And then you are done

I have tried all, that link (i did not found any folder..) reinstalling MP!L 4, reinstalling WLM and nothing

I'm having that problem

I'm still having trouble..:\

http://stiggy.be/msn/index.php/Error_Codes%287%29

try this page

I duno what to do...still not working

It finally worked

hey My sis has this problem but i don't so i was wonderiong if u could have msn live and msn 7.5 on my pc at once can someone plz tell me!!

hey there guys, suddenly when i was on my msn live messenger i was logged off. i tried logging back on and it gave me the 80004005 error. i ran the troubleshooting and everythig was fine (green ticks on everything) i tried re-logging and it kept on logging.. until like 5mins, i pressed cancel and tried again and it gae me the error again..

i have tried almost everything i could think off;

re-installing, downloading the register messenger dll, l even logged on the normal messenger, and i could logg on there with no problems. i also logged on another account on live messenger and that worked fine also..

then i found a post here :

http://shoutbox.menthix.net/showthread.php?tid=60700&pid=667853

and tried everything there.. same problem. in my case i deleted:   

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application Data\Microsoft\MSN Messenger

maybe i have done something wrong with deleteing that. because the path where i installed my messenger is:

C:\Program Files\MSN Messenger


i dunno what to do and i am really desperate on getting back on..
i really hope some of you have some ideas

ty vm in advanced
