It is not "

Only if that fails you can try to use 3rd party tools, knowing that you did try the proper official way first.
PS: I never had any problems using Add/Remove Programs to uninstall WLM 14 and install 8.5, even not after seriously messing around with installers and reg settings. (note that if you still had the old beta of WLM 14, you also need to remove it from Add/Remove Programs but this time choose "Windows Live Messenger" instead of "Windows Live Essentials").
