I logged onto MSNM and it told me about the new version. I upgraded, then tried to start it with JNRZ loader.

JNRZ Loader crashed when I tried this.

I downloaded the newest version of JNRZ Loader. This time, nothing happened at all. No MSN buddylist, no crashes, just nothing.

I tried running MSN by itself, and it won't start. It gives me an error message saying, "This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem."

I uninstalled/reinstalled. Same problem.

I reverted back to the old version and still get the same problem.

I completely stripped MSNM off my system, including deleting the Application Data from that folder. Reinstalled, same problem.

I'm at a loss here. I'm not the only one having this problem. Someone posted this problem on BigBlueBall as well.

Try un-installing msn messenger COMPLETLY, un-installl that loaded COMPLETLY....Reboot your computer....Download the latest version of msn messenger..Then go and read a bit about the latest loader and make sure it will work for the latest msn version...If not just dont use the loader and your msn should work correctly...

I did completely uninstall it (using Add/Remove Programs) and even deleted the MSN Messenger folder from my Application Data folder (this folder holds all profile info). I did reboot and then installed again. No joy. I think a file somewhere got corrupted, but I have no way of knowing which one.

Have you downloaed the latest version of msn messenger tho?? Not just got the install file but the newest version?

You have to download the install file to get the newest version, unless I'm missing something.

Ya thats what I meant, have you downloaded the newest version from http://messenger.msn.com ??

Yes I did. That's what's not working.

im afraid your MSN list has been lost.  what you can do is upload your back up (i hope you make one) or keep login in and out from a different PC, and different MSN's.  Try MSN Messenger and Windows Messenger.  then if that doesn't work.  Add yourself to yourself, signout, and sign in.  it might recover your list.

if not, you need to check your chat logs for everyones e-mails...

My buddylist is intact. I was able to get to it by using Windows Messenger. Finally I have my MSNM back, but I can't load it with JNRZ anymore. It crashes when I try to.

Maybe ur jrnzloader got corrupted somehow....
