you can't roll back anymore. At least, you can, but you wont be able to sign in [MS is forcing an update now].
I just hope this gears P to work a bit harder.
I have both 8.5 and 9 set up and 8.5 still works like a charm. If MS was really forcing an update it would have a message appear that says "there is a newer version of Windows Live Messenger available click here to learn more", like with previous forced updates.
Most of my contacts still have 8.5 with no issues.
Yeah will is right. Did you try the .msi to install WLM 8.5? ![[Image: FzB.png]](http://bjfwag.bay.livefilestore.com/y1pdj52Ii3vCMPj4YGjahp36j95P_jJFYkeLGcrzlPVt7yxNnmaKSA7RWy5qBjdbACbVCdYDd40JrehSh0XnY-syA/FzB.png)

RE: Important news regarding Windows Live Messenger and Messenger Plus! Live
i was forced to update today, from the 1st public beta to the newest version (version 2009 build: 14.0.8050.1202)
everytime i tried to sign in it told me i had to update, otherwise it wouldnt let me sign in. if clicked to cancell or decline the update i wud simply be returned to the login screen.
i guess this now means we have to wait for the next release of live plus.
also i think the update is forced at diff times for diff regions, makes sense really to keep the loads to a minimum on the servers rather than millions of people updating at once.

RE: Important news regarding Windows Live Messenger and Messenger Plus! Live
Anthony that's way normal... because we are now out of beta stages... but that is a forced update... no an forced upgrade... the one will happen if you are using a final version, for example 8.5 and they force you to upgrade to for example 2009/9/14...
they make this kind of forced updated to avoid people from using buggy programs (old betas), what's not telling you that the one you are using is not buggy but SHOULD BE less buggy

RE: Important news regarding Windows Live Messenger and Messenger Plus! Live
Does anybody here (remember vera lynn ) know any way to keep using the 908 version? Some hack, some patch, to make WLM seem like 1202? We believed we'd catch the Rainbow... But life's not a wheel, with chains made of steel... So bless me! Come the dawn...

I'm sure everyone knows that the taskbar window pane doesn't flash under tabbed chats.
Press alt and problem is fixed. |

Pressing Alt will do nothing for this problem, it is caused due to Messenger Plus! Live's current incompatibility with the new release of Windows Live Messenger
Patchou has just released a beta version to all testers and expects to have a public release online in around two weeks (could be before, could be after). |

yeah i said update, all i know is on my laptop i was using the windows live wave 3 betas, the first public ones (messenger, writer & mail)
i then started getting messages when i logged in saying new version available, so i updated on my pc, noticed that live plus didnt work with it and kept the wave 3 beta's on my laptop.
it used to just inform me on the laptop an update was available, today however it wouldnt let me login untill i updated.
i only really use live plus for the fancy coloured names, most of my contacts use it, and when its not working as in the latest update of WLM my contact list just look slike a load of gibberish lol
just been using the search bar to find contacts atm tho. |
