| x64 | Operating 2 message programs at same time I have a new shared computer with vista xp. We used to be able to run msn messenger, and windows messenger at the same time on the old one. This would allow both of us to stay signed in at the same time. i can't download any other versions of messenger to operate with windows live messenger. Can anyone help with that? |

| | Re: Operating 2 message programs at same time Greetings, Although there are some other schemes and third-party instant messaging applications which support Messenger you could use, you can actually set Messenger to start multiple times to allow what you want. To do so, just download and run the following .reg file: http://messenger.jonathankay.com/dow...eInstances.reg After this is imported, you don't need to restart Messenger, just click on a Live Messenger shortcut to open up another session. -- Jonathan Kay Microsoft MVP - Windows Live Messenger MSN Messenger/Windows Messenger MessengerGeek Blog: http://www.messengergeek.com Messenger Resources: http://messenger.jonathankay.com (c) 2009 Jonathan Kay - If redistributing, you must include this signature or citation -- "missclare" <guest@newsgroup-email.com> wrote in message news:f424f4c014716bed401bcf3a0335afcf@newsgroup-gateway.com...

When I created a new key it didn't work.
