You can now go back to Messenger Plus! Live to download again

You can also try downloading it from simtel. The current mirror will be listed on the MPL's website.

[Image: on.gif] Problem 2:
  • Msg Plus! Live not on messenger, eventhough I installed it.
  • Msg Plus! Live will not work properly, and some functions are not working!

After uninstall Windows Live Messenger, make sure to delete "C:\Program Files\MSN Messenger"before reinstalling, this has been proven to fix many problems from people emailing me.


[Image: on.gif] Problem 3: I installed Msg Plus! Live, but when I try to run WLM it now says a dll is missing!

Make sure you've unistalled Similey Central or SweetIM from your computer (Add & Remove programs..). If after doing this it still says a dll is missing, and you tried the two methods above described, try searching for the dll on google. You'll find a place to download it, after doing so, paste it in your WLM/MSG Plus! Live folder.


[Image: on.gif] Problem 4: I get an error message saying "it's not a valid win32 application" when trying to install

Read the following thread to fix this problem: http://shoutbox.menthix.net/showthread.php?tid=67...d=747508#pid747508


[Image: on.gif] Problem 5: I still can't install if after trying all of the above!

Please do remember MSN and WLM are two completely (well, almost) different things. MSN is not compatible with Messenger Plus! Live. If you're using MSN (7.5 or below..), you can download Messenger Plus 3.63 from this link.

Remember that you should download Msg Plus! Live from this link.



If your problem still remains unsolved, try using the search feature before posting. You may think it is boring to use the search feature, but, imagine how other members of this forum feel when they see different threads each day, and they all have the same problem?

problem one and four have the same solution


RE: Solution to problems installing Msg Plus! Live- READ BEFORE POSTING by pinealogik on 05-22-2007 at 08:02 PM

I did everything that people said on these forum, yet I can't make it work. Here's the deal :


I've got 2 user account on my windows XP (Administrator/Sneak).

I cannot make it work under Sneak user. It won't load and icons won't show up when I start MSN Messenger.

So I restarted under Administrator and uninstalled everything (MSN Messenger, Msg plus Live and deleted the folder MSN Messenger). Once that was done I've installed MSN messenger, then Msg plus Live and fired up MSN messenger and everything worked fine! Icons showed up...so Msg Plus Live is working under Administrator.

I then restarted my computer and logged into Sneak (wich is the second account on this computer and have all the right, just like administrator.) I started up MSN Messenger then a window appeared saying ''repairing msn messenger'' and Msg Plus Live didn't appeared in MSN Messenger... So yea, I'm kinda stuck here, I can install it on administrator but everytime I log in using my other account MSN messenger will just reinstall itself and remove Msg Plus Live...I don't get it, what could do this ?


Hope this wasn't too complicated -_-;


RE: Solution to problems installing Msg Plus! Live- READ BEFORE POSTING by MattyRid on 05-22-2007 at 08:46 PM

Try disbaling all spyware and anti-virus programs and see if it helps

otherwise it must mean that your other account doesn't have admin privileges, it's the only other possible explanation for it.

You will need to change it from limited to Computer Administrator by logging into the Admin account, go Start -> Control Panel -> User Accounts -> "Account Name" -> Account Type -> Choose Administrator -> Exit out then restart.


RE: Solution to problems installing Msg Plus! Live- READ BEFORE POSTING by CookieRevised on 05-22-2007 at 10:44 PM

Did you have anything else for Messenger installed on the Sneak account? Like other addons for Messenger, like SmileyCentral, Messenger Shell, SweetIM, etc? If so, try to disable/uninstall them (from the account they where installed from)...

Have you ever installed something like those addons at one point, but have you removed them again? If so, please lists them...

When i try to download plus it says:
An error occured whole trying to access the files of Messenger
Please exit Messenger and try again
If you keep getting this message, restart your computer.

I exit messenger; doesn't work
I restart my computer; still doesn't work.

What do i do??

It's impossible to get this message when you download Plus!. Downloading is not the same as starting/running a program or installing.

Anyways, you get this error, during the installation, because the loader of Messenger Plus! Live, msimg32.dll, has been locked.

This means that it can't be updated. To solve this you need to make sure that Windows Live Messenger (and MSN Messenger for that matter) is not running and that Messenger Plus! is not running.

The best thing you can do to make sure of that is to remove Windows Live Messenger, MSN Messenger (if you happen to still use it too) and Messenger Plus! from your Windows startup folder and from the startup entries in the registry. After you've done that reboot your computer.

Another, but more crude, method to do this and without the need to reboot your computer, is to kill all the processes involved. To do this:
1) Press CTRL-ALT-DEL to open the task manager.
2) Go to the processes tab and kill all of these processes: msnmsgr.exe, msgplus.exe, msmsgs.exe
3) Restart the Messenger Plus! Live installer.

Everytime I try to run plus! it encounters an error before it even starts up. It won't install at all! I tried to instal 4.23 4.22 and 4.10(or so)..

Please state what exact error you're getting (a screenshot would be nice).
What is the Windows OS version you're using?
What is the complete version of Messenger you're using (Contact List > Help > About Messenger)?

If the error is the same as one described above, please follow the given instructions first. If it still doesn't work, then also list what exact steps you've done...

-------------------------------------------------

If this is a about "AppName: msnmsgr.exe AppVer: 8.1.178.0 ModName: gdiplus.dll ModVer: 5.1.3102.2180 Offset: 00047cd7" then please do not cross-post!!!

Cross-posting is not allowed for the very reason you see happening here. It is of no use to repeat everything again said in your original thread and to start another discussion which would end in the same kind of questions and posts...

RE: Solution to problems installing Msg Plus! Live- READ BEFORE POSTING by CookieRevised on 07-14-2007 at 01:12 PM

Always search the forums first before posting a question.

In this case search the forums with "msgsres(2).dll":

- Error Message When Installing.
- Annoying Error

I think he meant that when you uninstall something from your computer, don't forget to remove that programs' folder from Program Files folder too, for instance in your case, remove the folders of Messenger Plus! Live and WinRAR

I wasn't the one that said that, if you read carefully, you'll see it was Patchou who said it. I'm sure you can take his word for it, though as he said, it has worked for some people- not all of them.

You must run the setup of Messenger Plus! after downloading it from the net. That process is called installation and that is the actual thing which integrates Messenger Plus! Live into Windows Live Messenger. (Sorry if I repeated something you already know, but I must say this at first because I can't know from my chair how advanced a user you are.)
OK, I cancelled this paragraph :P

thank you, okay i downloaded the latest version of windows live from your link, 8.5, it works fine.
i then uninstalled messenger plus live and downloaded it again
and it came up with the invalid Win32 error.
so i read the thread of how to solve this, and it said download from a mirror. so i used the recommnded mirror and downloaded it again, this time it appreared to work fine and once again it came up saying "successful installation" and that to access the new features, i should run windows live messenger.
so i ran wndows lve messenger, and still there is no sign of it, it hasn't integrated itself.

thanks for your help do you have any other suggestions?

Did you download it from the Official Website?  As it sounds like you may have downloaded a false version.

Messenger Plus Live is 100% virus free and I have AVG so I know that there are no compatability issues

If it still happens after downloading from the official website could you please post a screenshot of what happens?

I installed it from i clicked on the link and was taken to the norwegian side [url=http://www.msgpluslive.no/]

When i installed i had a choise of installing the supporter thing that support this msn or something aslo. First time installed that one with the supporter choise it popped up a warning that AVG (free version) found a trojan. I uninstalled the whole program, restarted comp, tried to install it again without the supporter thing. Then it worked fine. Without trojan. 


Here is the pic report of that it found a trojan when i installed the supporter thing from the official side.

RE: Solution to problems installing Msg Plus! Live- READ BEFORE POSTING by CookieRevised on 09-03-2008 at 08:14 AM

The warning you got is a false positive. That means that AVG mistakes the sponsor program for a trojan horse. This happens, but you can ignore this warning.

Know that the sponsor program is adware (as explained in the setup page and in the sponsor EULA you need to agree upon), not a trojan, nor spyware.

You say you uninstalled Messenger Plus! after the AVG warning. In that case the optional sponsor should be uninstalled too. So no problems there. If you still encounter a problem you might want to:
1) disable AVG
2) install Messenger Plus! WITH the sponsor again
3) uninstall Messenger Plus! and its sponsor.
4) reinstall Messenger Plus! without the sponsor.
5) Enable AVG again
(4 and 5 can be swapped)

This to ensure that the sponsor program has been removed properly because virusscanners are notorious for damaging the setup file and thus the proper uninstallation procedure of the sponsor.

I installed it and it worked but the second time I signed in, I went to talk to someone and wrote "hi" in the box and hit enter, but the "hi" just stayed where it was and it didn't go into the conversation. Now my messenger doesnt work anymore.


I should have said I can't use Msg Plus! Live anymore because of this.
I tried reinstalling it but it didnt solve the problem and I have no Smiley Central DLL.

Hi.i've read and search many of the previous topic but i don't find any working solution.

I've been using messenger plus for many years now and it's the firts time that i got a problem with it:

some days ago it just stopped working,without any error.i have tried the repairing option, desinstallation and reinstallation (for both messenger plus and live messenger), no luck, it wont "load" (i don't know if it's the exact translation in english, i'm using the french version).

someone have another solution?

Have you upgraded to the latest leaked beta of Windows Live Messenger? If so, then this is the problem. Messenger Plus! is not compatible with the latest beta and it will not be until the official release of Windows Live Messenger 9.0

If I were you I would completely uninstall Norton and use free alternatives like AVG or Avast.

1. Uninstall Failed install of Messenger Plus
2. Uninstall Windows Live Messenger(including live assitant , skydrive etc, i think there where 4 items for me to uninstall)
3. Uninstall Kiwee Winks(didnt even now i had installed that)
4. Using Explorer i deleted c:\program files\msn messenger and the Messenger Plus directory and Kiwee Directory.
5. Complete reboot/restart.
6. Installed Windows Live Messenger 2009(removed one or 2 items from optional products)
7. Ran and logged into Windows Live Messenger 2009 and then logged out.
8. Installed Messenger Plus 4.79b (very important to use this version or higher), i did included sponsor to start with and then i have tried uninstalling and all is great.
9. Restarted PC again, and hey presto all works including running multiple instances of MSN.

So im very happy to back running with Messenger Plus. Many thanks for a great product.

'write' means 'type'....you type the word 'regedit' into the box that comes up when you press Start, then Run (or if you have Vista, press Windows Key + R on the keyboard)

HKEY_USERS is a location in the registry.....just follow the instructions EXACTLY and it will solve the problem
RE: Solution to problems installing Msg Plus! Live- READ BEFORE POSTING by CookieRevised on 01-28-2009 at 11:13 AM

in regards to the previous post (from djdannyp), you should not change the registry key "HKEY_USERS\...". The correct key is "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\...". However, changing this key will most likely not solve anything. See 'CookieRevised's reply to New problem with Messenger Plus! ' why


RE: Solution to problems installing Msg Plus! Live- READ BEFORE POSTING by nymphinblue on 01-28-2009 at 12:33 PM

Install the latest version of Windows Live Messenger from here, then install the latest version of Plus! from here. Also, do you have any other add-ons?

You're right =P
A lot of people by here go to orkut.com looking for help, others just google around, and when they can't find the answear, just google for "messenger plus forum" and it leads to here =)
And yeah... The right is: PM the person to ask if she/he wants help with translation. You can't just severely tell them they're wrong in a lanuage they don't understand, will have no results, and they can even go mad with you, and then things go way too bad =P
Back to the problem, first in Portuguese:
helenaseta, ninguém sabe direito de onde esse problema veio, só que muita gente tá tendo ele... =/ Até agora, você pode tentar desisnatalar completamente o Messenger Plus! e o Live Messenger, e então reinstalar. Se não der certo, so me mande um email e tentarei te ajudar! =) [blessedguys@gmail.com]
in English:
helenaseta, nobody knows exactly what's causing it, only that loads of people are having this same problem. =/ Up to now, you can try uninstalling Messenger Plus! and Live Messenger, and then reinstall them. If it doesn't help, send me a mail and I'll do what I can. =)

Joshua, never believe in automatic translator =P

"alguem pode me ajudar instalei o novo msn 9.0 e o live so que ao digitar na caixa de mensagens eu nao consigo visualizar o que estou escrevendo sometnte apos o envio. O q fazer?"

means:
"Can somebody help me? I installed the new WLM2009 and Plus! Live but when I type in conversation windows, I can't see what I'm typing, only fter sending it. What should I do?"

Menthix[/url]]Several people on the Dutch forum reported the same problem. None of them had any skins or scripts interfering and all the font/color settings were correct. The thing that solved it was uninstalling Live Messenger and Messenger Plus! and re-install it again.

Still not sure what's causing this for a relative large group of people, but at least there's a fix.
According to MenthiX, Uninstalling aind re-installing both just worked.
De acordo com o MenthiX, desistalando e reinstalando resolve.

Yes, but the Google translation still made the problem abundantly clear.

Agreed.

At any rate, a friend of mine is experiencing an installation problem... He's running Windows XP SP3,  latest WLM2009 build (too lazy to look up the number), downloaded the latest MsgPlusLive build, installed it successfully, but it doesn't load WLM with Plus.

He believes his wife had used SweetIM before, but it has been uninstalled and the folder deleted, he has uninstalled Messenger, deleted the folder, and reinstalled it, then did the same thing with Plus, and nothing seems to work.

Any insight would be helpful.

Does he have any other add-ons that might conflict with Plus! like MessengerDiscovery, Kiwee, or ThreatFire "Antivirus"? If not, please provide us with a screenshot of all his programs in Add/Remove Programs as there might be something conflicting with Plus! and installed without even his knowledge.
RE: Solution to problems installing Msg Plus! Live- READ BEFORE POSTING by HeWhoPonders on 03-11-2009 at 08:22 PM

Took awhile to get the shots from said friend, but..

There you have it.

Update: He had Kiwee installed at one point before, he managed to remove remaining traces of it and reinstalled Messenger and Plus Live again, meeting with success.

As such, problem is resolved.

Hi everytime i download msg plus my windows live messenger only works for about 10 maybe 15 mins with the plus application and then it cuts out with a dialogue box that says windows live messenger has encountered and error and needs to close and this happes only when i have downloaded the plus application. i have tried numerous time to uninstall and then reinstall the msg plus application but the same thing keeps happening....is there anyway that i could use the old version of msn messenger plus because the main feature i wish to have on the my windows messenger is boss control where i can hide my msn in my toolbar.

You should run it and it will remove Windows Live Messenger. After it finishes, re-download Windows Live Messenger.

De novo, só temos eu e o Chancer que sabemos português aqui, então não adianta muito.... :dodgy:
Maaaaaaais, como acho que já disse, esse é um daqueles probleminhas que aparecem do nada e somem do nada. Já testou na casa de outra pessoa? Se funcionar direitinho em outro lugar, é a prova que é algum problema na sua conexão, mesmo que ela esteja impecável.
Paciência é uma virtude! ;)

He said he's having problems with Windows Live Messenger, he is able to connect, but as soon as he tries to chat with someone, Messenger disconnects. "It's already been one whole week, and my connection is gorgeous", he says.
I just answeared telling him that there aren't that much lusophons here, and that this problem is one of those that come with no apparent reason and dissapear without apparent reason as well. Asked him to test in another PC/House, and that patience is a virtue.
And there it is, another post translated to engluish because the poster forgot to translate it by himself earlier.... anyways...

Messenger Plus! Live Disappears after restart

Try looking there, as you are also missing the Plus! icon and formatting bar from the conversation window, so it is likely that another program is conflicting with Messenger Plus! Live and needs removing in order for it to function correctly

Right.. Hey..

I've tried installing messenger plus 3 times. I even went and downloaded Messenger Plus 3, to see if that would work. They all download alright, Then I come to installing the latest version of messenger plus, And it comes up with an error screen, I click try again, And it works, Every single time..

It seems to install fine after the error screen, But then.. Once it's finished. It seems as if it was never installed on my pc.. I've tried un-installing and reinstalling both Msn Messenger, And Messenger Plus.. But to no avail. I've made sure that all files are deleted before i try reinstalling..  But that doesn't help either..

Im using Msn Messenger version; Build 14.0.8064.206 . I really need some help here because I'm out of ideas.. Anyone.. Help me.. Please.

I was fine with 8.1 of WLM but Microsoft sent me a message stating I need to upgrade and I upgraded to 2009 but Messenger Plus would not work. I tried downgrading to 8.5 at least but it gave me an error saying Castrophic failure. I tried repairing messenger Plus but it didn't work. I tried uninstall and reinstall Messenger Plus but still doesn it. I've tried solutions if any programs interferes with WLM and Messenger Plus Live but I don't have any of those programs that interferes with it. Any ideas?

Before posting my problem thanks in advance for even taking the time to read it.

I have installed all the latest and greatest of WML and MP.. And I cannot seem to get it to work. MP that is..


I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling a thousand times, still nothing.

I dont have any conflicting programs onboard that Iam aware of so I think Iam safe there.

Im out of ideas; Ive tired with the only chat guys/IRC still nothing.


It has worked many times before; Infact Ive been using it since the begining and its not something I wan tto give up..


Anyway if someone can help me please do! Im having a bad time trying to solve it.


Seems to me everyone is having the same issue sorry to repost..


Is this maybe a bug?

Do you mean the simtel mirror in the first post? It has Plus! 4.83.0.372, that's not waaay outdated. The changelog on msgplus.net hasn't been updated to .376 either :p
I see no problem with that mirror, it's just lagging a bit behind. No need for a new thread
RE: Solution to problems installing Msg Plus! Live- READ BEFORE POSTING by Wileyska on 06-03-2010 at 09:13 PM

The solution to this issue in my case was the "compatibility" under MSN Live properties.

Right Click on WINDOWS LIVE MESSENGER
go to PROPERTIES
then chose: COMPATIBILITY tab
and make sure the Compatibility mode is UNCHECKED

****************************************************
After many attemps trying to get the msn contacts back and doing all of the suggestions I came accross, one was to change the compatibility to Windows 2000. Later I realized I had no Messenger Plus and I thought I had ruined this more than it was. Two days later, after reading every possible thread on this web site (before actually posting my concern and then getting yelled at by some of the support members!) I came accross this solution in a thread that had nothing to do with this...so I decided I was going to make a comment on this one...Hope that helps :D

So recently I upgraded to WLM 2011, only to find that Messenger Plus won't work, where the icon to change settings/etc in WLM doesn't appear :c
I've tried restarting and reinstalling, only to find that nothing will work. It's the latest version of WLM and Messenger Plus, so older versions can't be the problem..
I've been reading in the other threads here that sometimes it's from certain software installed but I don't have anything like that, so what should I do? *can't live without that great chat logging/irc-like command codes/quick texts*

Hi and welcome....

'Polygamy' (the ability to login with more than one account at the same time in Messenger) is not yet supported in Messenger Plus! 4.9 running on Windows Live Messenger 2011.

You'll have to wait for Plus!5 to fix that issue.

-Search Google for "A-Patch windows live messenger"
(Not sure if allowed to link here to third party software)
-Download the latest version and install
-During Install you'll be asked which options you want, polygamy being one of them.
-Note: It's also capable of removing advertisements and such.

I have been using this patch without a problem, but since I'm not the author of this program, use it at your own risk.

It's not intended to work with Messenger Plus!
If Messenger Plus! works you wouldn't want to do this. :P

Either way, not to discredit CookieRevised's comment, I would say try the A-Patch method only. Will edit the post before.
RE: Solution to problems installing Msg Plus! Live- READ BEFORE POSTING by CookieRevised on 02-02-2011 at 10:14 PM

And what if the user wants to use more features of Plus! than just polygamy?

Yes, you're right. A-Patch works flawlessly with Messenger Plus! and I will edit the previous post(s).

Edit:

Just to say, I'd be disappointed if that would actually stop the new Messenger Plus! v5 from working, unless that version will have the option to hide from taskbar implemented. :P But we'll see about that later... naturally.

Why is it th the Messenger Plus will not work properly? maybe there's something wrong that's why it's not working.

Probably not. In a short while, when it's ready, Messenger Plus! 5 should be released and fix all the problems :) So far it seems like it will be better than ever!

In contact list window, you may still see a Plus! menu and "Software not loaded..." item in it. If it is there, click on it and check the box "Disable safe mode..." and restart Messenger.

I'm facing the same problem as tofupanda.
I'm suspecting that Windows 7 64 bit version isn't fully compatible. My other laptop running on Windows Vista 32 bit has Messenger Plus 5 fully functional.
This laptop was bought not long ago and I do not install any other extensions or programs. I only had Messenger Plus 5 installed.
Tried redownloading and reinstalling.


RE: Solution to problems installing Msg Plus! Live- READ BEFORE POSTING by CookieRevised on 03-16-2011 at 04:46 PM

There indeed seems to be problems with Messenger Plus! and more specifically on Windows 7 64bit systems, although not on all of them (some peeps report no problems at all). At least, Win7 64bit seems to be the common denominator so far for those reporting the problems and crashes. :/


RE: Solution to problems installing Msg Plus! Live- READ BEFORE POSTING by YoYoost on 03-16-2011 at 05:12 PM

Maybe it has to do with services? Do you have a list of services WLM and MP!L use?

I have 2 Win 7 installs now, where on 1 WLM + MP!L works fine and on the other it doesn't even start. However the same services are started so it might be something else.


RE: Solution to problems installing Msg Plus! Live- READ BEFORE POSTING by CookieRevised on 03-16-2011 at 06:39 PM

Plus! doesn't use any services.
And I doubt the WLM services are the culprint.

What might be happening is that something in Plus! calls a 'wrong' or incompatible Windows API for Win7 64bit, or a hard coded registry path which is called (in 64bit registry entries are a bit different than on 32bit) and then it crashes on that....... or something...


RE: Solution to problems installing Msg Plus! Live- READ BEFORE POSTING by Apatik on 03-16-2011 at 06:59 PM

Interestingly enough, Plus! is coded and compiled on Win7 x64 machines... But I guess it could be related anyway.

Can you check how big the file size is of the Plus! setup you've run and report that size back here.

After that:
1- Remove that web installer setup file.
    (Also check your Desktop; There might also be a file link related to the webinstaller on there named "Continue Messenger Plus! Installation".)
2- Clear your browser cache (see how here)
3- Restart your computer
4- Redownload Messenger Plus! from this link:
    http://mirror10.msgpluslive.net/20110308/Conduit/Setup-MsgPlus-501.exe
    updated: http://mirror10.msgpluslive.net/20110531/VS/Setup-MsgPlus-502.exe
5- Save that full setup somewhere and start it up

Note that the above link will install the exact same version of Messenger Plus! as you tried before. The only difference is the setup/installer itself.

Do you have the same issue when doing all this?

Only way you can close it is through task manager. Just a quick heads up, ive ran malware spyware checks etc, redownloaded it 8 million times, run it as administrator, run in compatability of about..every option on there, nothing .. just a white box.

w4nksta, can you also answer the question I asked to MeliMelo here, and maybe try the same thing as I suggested in that post.

Because after seeing your screenshot, I believe the setup you're using is the web-setup (which was never tested by beta testers and is known to have issues). So, I'd suggest you try again with the full size/offline setup.

RE: Solution to problems installing Msg Plus! Live- READ BEFORE POSTING by Spunky on 06-21-2011 at 07:50 AM

Sounds like some other software (could be another add-on for messenger or even an anti-virus) is causing an issue with Plus!. Could you please take a couple of screenshot of your Add/Remove programs panel so we can see what might be causing it?

Here you go :)

edit: read through a lot of stuff and got the idea it might be my nvidia driver. I uninstalled it and plus finally worked! but everytime I uninstall I have to restart and then when I restart my laptop automatically installs it again and plus no longer works :(
Going to see if I can find a driver that works but looks like I'm a lost cause :(

I'm having problems trying to install msgplus. After I install it, the icon doesn't appear in my messenger window, and it's as if it hasn't been installed at all. I've read through all the posts here; I don't have SmileyCentral or any of those other programs, and I've uninstalled WLM and Msgplus multiple times, restarting as well. I'm using WLM2009 with Msgplus5.02. My OS is Win7 Home Premium 64bit. Please help T.T

Hi everyone, can someone help??? before i start, im quite new to computers and although i have used windows messenger before, i thought the idea of being able to use 2 messengers, via PLUS would be fantastic. I recently bought this computer which had windows live essentials 2011. I attemted to download Messenger Plus and thought i had succeeded, however when opening messenger, there was no PLUS. I have uninstalled several times (both WLM and PLUS) however this still nothing. I have noticed in control panel>messenger PLUS has a red cross over it and an exclamation mark? I gather this means it is not installed. Can anyone assist me?

That is just the uninstall icon. Doesn't have anything to do with it not being installed. If it displays in the Add/Remove programs it is installed.

What is the model of your computer?
RE: Solution to problems installing Msg Plus! Live- READ BEFORE POSTING by dtags on 07-19-2011 at 06:32 AM

Dell XPS 17, Win7, home premium 64bit.

@dtags

Your problem is nVidia driver, try to remove it and try your plus again.

From my real experience, if I installed nVidia driver in my Dell N5110,
the Plus will not work.
But after I format my Win 7 64bit and re-install it without nVidia driver, Plus can work without any problems.
So I assume that the problem is "nVidia driver"

If anyone try this way and it really work, please inform me (or nVidia)
about this problem. I want to know how many people have this problem.

Is nVidia important for anything?? Is it okay if I uninstall it??

My previous version Messenger Plus 5 works fine but I cannot install 5.10.0.748. I always got an error as attached. I uninstalled Messenger Plus and then reinstalled Messenger Live 2011. The problem is still there, I tried more than one hundred times without solution.

I have the same issue here. Is there a way we can download the "complete" install package as previous versions. The "download component from server and install" method does not seem to work well.

Maybe it's the network issue but could it at least retry for a few more times?

RE: Solution to problems installing Msg Plus! Live- READ BEFORE POSTING by Reaper_63 on 10-15-2011 at 05:12 AM

I am also having the same problem.  The online installer fails every single time.  It gets about 3/4 finished and then fails.  If so many people are having this problem, maybe it's time to go back to the offline installer.  This is absolutely ridiculous and totally unnecessary, especially when there is an obvious solution.

Perhaps it's time to just stop using Plus altogether.

The short answer: Messenger Plus! and SweetIM don't work together, you'll have to uninstall one of them.

For more details or if you have still have questions about the same issue, see Odd codes like 9c3f5601-3337-11e0-b5da-0050fca4005a in conversation windows (SweetIM).
RE: Solution to problems installing Msg Plus! Live- READ BEFORE POSTING by chris752 on 12-14-2011 at 09:08 PM

I have tried the suggestions for installing the newest version as of 12/14/2011 and I get a message saying "An error occurred while Installing Messenger Plus!. Please try again later." and nothing I do seems to allow me to download it.

Anyone have any suggestions?


RE: Solution to problems installing Msg Plus! Live- READ BEFORE POSTING by RogueJedi86 on 12-16-2011 at 06:57 PM

Same problem as everyone else. "An error occurred while installer Messenger Plus! Please try again later."

If it helps, I'm on Windows XP Pro 64-bit.

Like others said, please let us download the entire thing manually instead, so we can go straight to installing. That would help the problem of it not downloading itself through the installer client we're given.


RE: Solution to problems installing Msg Plus! Live- READ BEFORE POSTING by chris752 on 12-16-2011 at 07:48 PM

I'm using Windows XP 32 bit.

Hello! I use Win7x64, WLM 2009 (v14) and Plus! 5.11 (latest version).
I always used Plus without any problem. However, 2-3 days ago (I can't tell exactly when) when I launched WLM I found Plus had disappeared. I tried many times to unistall and reinstall (both WLM and Plus) but nothing changed. I haven't installed any Smiley central or stuff like that. What can i do?
Thanks!


RE: Solution to problems installing Msg Plus! Live- READ BEFORE POSTING by Spunky on 03-12-2012 at 01:52 AM

Do you still have the "Plus!" menu in the toolbar? (you can bring it up momentarily by pressing ALT on the keyboard; "Plus!" should show to the right of the "Help" menu)


RE: Solution to problems installing Msg Plus! Live- READ BEFORE POSTING by Ringo90 on 03-12-2012 at 10:42 PM

No, can't see, it's completely gone; today i tried to install the latest version of WLM, but still no plus! o.o


RE: Solution to problems installing Msg Plus! Live- READ BEFORE POSTING by totonf on 03-13-2012 at 12:13 AM

Did you use BitDefender (keiththewolf's report)?


RE: Solution to problems installing Msg Plus! Live- READ BEFORE POSTING by Ringo90 on 03-13-2012 at 12:50 AM

No i didn't...
However, after 3 days i eventually came to a solution: i don't know why, but running WLM in Win 7 compatibility mode (though i'm using Win 7 already) makes Plus appear again.


RE: cannot install Messenger Plus! 5.11 by cottontail on 05-19-2012 at 11:52 PM

attempted to install Messenger Plus! Live version 5.11.  Downloaded installer from official site. When I run the installer it will go for a short time and then stop giving the message: An Error Occurred  while installing Messenger Plus!. Please try again later.

I've tried the things that are listed on this site but with no luck I still keep getting the same error message.  Am using windows live messenger 2009 build 14.0.8117.416 on Windows XP Pro SP3

RE: Solution to problems installing Msg Plus! Live- READ BEFORE POSTING by ewayne1941 on 11-18-2012 at 11:50 PM

Installation goes ok, everything works except if I try to send a wink, messenger shuts down and restarts. I do not have the sweetIm  or smiley programs. I have reinstalled numerous times, same result. I am using the latest versions of plus and messenger.
