No WAY to set up Messenger 14.xxxx HELP!!! by AlenX on 12-09-2009 at 12:56 PM

Tell me,what is wrong with a way of setup of new messenger 14!!!  I just can not set it up to my comp. I try to use older versions like messenger 8 ,but it tells me I got to upgrade to newer version ,but I just can not do it. I am trapt. I `m using digsby instead,but that is just not it.

When I try to set up messenger 14.xxx.xx   , first I check what I want to install ( I check only messenger) and it starts all well. It loads all till the end,but then it shows me red X , telling me that messenger was not installed,because of ...I don`t remember what error... I think it was 80070003.  And I did many things,that used to avoid that error(cleaned some things in registry,cleaned up older messengers,did some "tricks"-like i have win 2000 or so...and some more...),but still,there it is!!

I hate that error so much,but I miss using messenger.
Any suggestion?

Try the following:

- Go to http://download.live.com/
- Click Download.
- When download appears, click Cancel.
- Click the Try again button, which will download wlsetup-all.exe

This contains all the Windows Live Essentials. Once downloaded, try and install Messenger.
This sometimes works for people having problem with the normal wlsetup-web.exe.

Note: Please don't put "HELP!!!" to try and get people's attention. Someone will try and help a.s.a.p whatever title you put.

I ve tried that. doesnt work either.

Microsoft Application Error Reporting:
..it writes,that I must check if I`m online. And that microsoft applications can be downloaded only if you have active internet connection  :D 

I mean...that is hilarious. And dramatic...

Number of error is    hr:0x80040005


so it does NOT work!!

Do you have the latest .Net framework?

You could try running ZapMessenger before trying again. It deletes all files related to Messenger, which solves installation people for a lot of people.
