Not launching WLM after installation. by froznb on 01-11-2009 at 06:37 AM
Greetings guys. I don't know if it was just me but It happened in my 2 computers. Im running Windows XP with Windows Live Messenger 2009. I downloaded the 4.79b beta a while ago and proceeded to install. Plus! closed WLM and installed correctly, but didn't launch WLM again after the installation was finished. I had to launch it manually. I payed no attention when it happened on the first computer, but after happening again on the second system I thought I should post it. I use no other add-ons, in case you need to know.
I've been beta testing WL Products for long time but is my first time with MP!L so I'm sorry if I missed any detail or if it happened only to me.
Keep up the good work!!

This is by-design now. WLM is never launched (regardless of whether you're on XP or Vista) at the end of Plus! installation. Since 4.79 beta build 342.

It isn't a problem
As explained above this is intended behaviour. As launching it from the install in Vista would cause problems, it has been decided to disable auto-launching after install on all platforms to avoid any confusion.
