Is it possible for WLM to not uninstall all scripts when PC crashs? by rainbow on 02-03-2007 at 10:21 PM
Is there an option or something that can do that?
It would be usefull cause i play counter strike source and from time to time it crashs my PC and its boring to have to put all the scripts again...
thanks

I don't see a reason why Plus! scripts could disappear (ever time) after a system crash. They should just stay there and be ready to use after a crash. So what is exactly your problem? Are you saying the files disappear from your system when Counterstrike crashes your PC?
I will probably be a better idea to actually fix the cause of the problem. Why does Counterstrike crash? Did you install the latest version of Counterstrike (get it from Steam), DirectX and your videocard driver (check manufacturer's site)?

This is done for safety measurements. But also note that this will only be done if Messenger crashes, not if another program crashes.
As Menthix suggested it is best to fix the actual error instead of working around this disabling of scripts....
As for turning off the auto-disabling of scripts after a Messenger crash, yes this is possible. However, use it at your own risk!:
Go to the registry and add the REG_DWORD key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Patchou\Messenger Plus! Live\your_msn_mail\Preferences\EnableScriptProtection and set its value to 0.

Yes, they dont disappear, they only get disabled, i'll do that...
I dont try to fix my Counter strike cause sometimes theres just no way to fix it....thats how Counter strike source works 
That little registry fix will do just for now.
Thanks
