| | Not possible to show My Image, in WLM 8.5 Recently installed, from a clean installation, WLM 8.5 with Vista Ultimate SP1. It is not possible to show my image, because says "the imege format is not a valid format file" (of course, it is valid). Also, the option "don“t show my image" is ticked, gray color, so it is not possible to uncheck it. |

| | Re: Not possible to show My Image, in WLM 8.5 Thnks, Jonathan. I tried with many of my images, and the results are the same. And, in fact, some of them were used with the same pourpose in Messenger 7.0, in my other computer. "Jonathan Kay [MVP]" wrote: Quote: > Greetings, > > This is very odd on a clean installation.

| | Re: Not possible to show My Image, in WLM 8.5 Hi, Well it's unusual since this is a new installation, but generally you can solve this by just removing what display pictures you currently have saved. To do so, first shut down Messenger (or at least sign out), then click Start and type the following: %appdata%\..\Local\Microsoft\Messenger Then press enter, and click the folder corresponding to the Live ID you sign in under. Choose the ObjectStore folder and then delete the UserTile folder. Now restart Messenger and try again. -- Jonathan Kay Microsoft MVP - Windows Live Messenger MSN Messenger/Windows Messenger MessengerGeek Blog: http://www.messengergeek.com Messenger Resources: http://messenger.jonathankay.com (c) 2008 Jonathan Kay - If redistributing, you must include this signature or citation -- "gommace" <gommace@xxxxxx> wrote in message news 14B60B5-AF2A-435F-A57A-4669B3CEFAA3@xxxxxxQuote: > Thnks, Jonathan.

| | Re: Not possible to show My Image, in WLM 8.5 Hi, No way, Jonathan. I made your recommendations, I installed and reinstalled, I played with the registry, deleting and undeleting all the keys related with WLM ... it is impossible to solve this problem, and my other problem (the links to MSN today, mail ... etc.) neither. Finnally I decided to install MSN Messenger 7.0, and voila! everything is now working perfectly. Thanks anyway, but there is some kind of magics, or a black relation, betwen my computer and WLM impossible to fix.
