I can't get my WLM to work when I install plus! =( *tears* by Lunarskylar on 12-17-2007 at 02:30 AM

i'm not sure how long i've had this problem

i noticed that my Msn wouldn't intiate when I clicked it, but i didn't really care, since I wasn't using my msn that much

then i lost my internet

when i got it back, and WLM and Plus! worked for a while... then stopped

i reformatted my computer (for diff reasons, not just the WLM), reinstalled WLM and Plus!, and it worked for the first time

but after that and ever since then, it just doesn't. Whenever I start WLM, the process appears in TM, then about a minute later, without the WLM window opening at all, it terminates

if i uninstall plus, my msn is just fine

i've tired the Simley IM and etc.. method over and over, but to no luck

i tried installing it in safe mode, and WLM starts up then, but when I return to the normal mdoe it stops

I've noticed alot of people have this problem, but I haven't found a thread with a solution yet

so please, if there's anyone who has any suggestions, it would be grately appreciated

I'm using McAfee Security Center, if that helps


hmm ok, i disabled my program windows blind (by accident) and now it works....

but they used to work together before

is this normal? is there anyway to get them to work in unison?

because honestly the two programs have nothing to do wtih each other, as far as i know

well, i've been using winbli and plus for ages, side by side, until recentl;y,

i guess maybe it's the new setup of plus!

however, i've found a way to make them both work,
if i unload wb then wlm will start, then i can jsut reload wb

so its all good for nowz

if anyone does find something, i'd be glad to hear it

Indeed, there have been several issues with WindowBlinds and Plus! recently.  It should be noted that although you can get both working using the Startup Method you've selected, you may still encounter unexpected errors and GUI glitches due to the incompatibility.  I personally agree with MattyRid, I would choose to remove WindowBlinds over Plus! any day of the week.

actually, luckily for me, i jsut installed a newer version of WB (since i;'ve had this one since the stone ages), and now everything is working as it once did

well, im glad that's finally fixed xD i was missing my actual chat logs

++ AND my shmexy tabbed chats xDD
