i tried to re-sign to my current 2009 BETA but it keeps saying the service
is temporarily unavailable, so i can't sign in....

i tried to uninstall this BETA but before it finish the uninstallation it

Same here, same sequence of events (XP SP3 here) and can't uninstall, login
etc. Time for a third-party 'cleaner'?

Greetings,

If it's rolling back then it's encountering an error with one of the components. The easiest
thing to do would be to just manually uninstall each and see which one fails.

A list of each beta component and how to uninstall each can be found here:
http://messengergeek.spaces.live.com...BDA1!868.entry

Basically I suggest you just go through the list until you find the one that fails and you
should hopefully receive the true error.

Dear Jonathan,

Thank you for this, i found another blog there on how to install the new
versions, iinstalled all of the new ones manually but had a problem with
Windows Live Photo Gallery Beta!!
i tried to uninstall it manually but i got a msg that is saying
"A network error occurred while attempting to read from the file:
C:\WINDOWS\Installer\PhotoLibrary.msi"

and when i try to update ot through Windows Essintial it gives another error
number too!!!

Hi guys
You might like to look at the thread about WLM 2009 version 14. it may give
you a second option.
