Hello people..

Yesterday I made an upgrade from Windows XP3 to Windows Vista Ultimate SP1, all the applications and things are working like charm but in Windows Live Messenger I have a problem.

I like to use a font size 8 which I can choose without any issue and use it but when I close the window or when Another windows pop up it came with the size in 10 which for me is a problem as I like to much a minimalist window.

I don't have this problem with XP of course and until now is the only thing That I care (a lot) in vista.

My desktop resolution is 1680 * 1050, I don't know worth mention it

I assume you're talking about the option:
Tools > Options > Messages > Change font of my instant messages

If not, then the above is the place to set your font size. Setting the font size from within a chat window (Edit > Change Font) is only temporary until you close that chat window.

If so, and it does not retain the setting in Vista, then this might be a bug and should be reported to Messenger Support.

Indeed, this is the way that I'm did it.

Also now I see that in
Tools > Options > Messages > Change font of my instant messages
is just fine, set as 8
but when I open up a chat window Came with the 10 value.

Let me report it.

Thank you

Did it, but I open Up and reverse Back.

Is time to uninstall, erase all concerning Windows Live and Reinstalll again.

---

Uninstalled, Deleted all related Windows Live folders, Deleted registry information same problem.

I'm beginning to hate Vista to soon.

---

Ok I resolve the problem.

Ripp of Aereo for Classic and is working like a charm.

Sorry aereo but for me 8 size is better than beautiful things

---

Now even better,

I took the time an compared the appearance differents between Aero and Windows Classic, First I checked the Windows Classic and write down all the values for every box after that compared I Change it the Aero as the classic one.

The differents are than in Aero Mode the most Little Value are 9 and 19, I change it to 8 and 18 and Is working Like a Charm.

So, it was a Vista theme problem then? Strange stuff....
Thanks for lettings us now how to 'solve' it.
You still reported it, no?

Yeah was the Vista Theme.

I believe I reported as a Feedback which was actually the only option that I found for this.

I doubt that much people use 8 as a font but for me that is a must have, Even I was thinking already in uninstall Vista just for that.

Imagine
