O.P. Huh?  How to activate a script by the windows register?
I have to try to activate a script by modifying the value " Enabled " in the register but the script does not start?
The script seems marked well in Msg +, but it is not started8o|.

Thank's for your help

If the script is checked but doesn't start then the script is most likely defective, and won't start because there is bad code in it.

Messenger Plus! Live doesn't check the registry every time to see if a script is enabled. So by just change the Enabled DWORD you can't get to start or stop a script. I guess changing the value and then restart the script might do the trick. See CookieRevised's reply to Restart script through code ;).

Look in the debug window for any errors at a certain line in your script
There are two types of menus that Plus! can handle static and dynamic. Static menus are set in the ScriptInfo.xml file and are loaded separately so you will still see the emnu items.

In the other case where menus are dynamic and are handled by
function OnGetScriptMenu(Location)
{
}
so this kind of menu might or might not load depending where the error existed.

Window Manager is discontinued, for WLM try the new,
Enhancer for contact list docking, auto-hide, hide taskbar button, remove button flashing and remember keyboard layout in conversation windows

Sorry TazDevil, is not a menu of a script, but the start script menu
