| | Re: Can't uninstall Live Messenger 2009, could not access key Greetings Diiimn, What you're seeing is a registry permissions problem. It's the key for setting up the Messenger Media Player plugin. As a starting point, I would suggest you System Restore (click Start, type System Restore and click the option), to before you used the Revo Uninstaller as that really is making it more complicated than it should be. Then to see what's really going on, click Start, then type regedit and press Enter to bring up the registry editor. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MediaPlayer\UIPlugins and see if you get any errors going through any of the keys underneath there. If you do, make a note of which keys where the permission errors start. You can then either post back that information, or depending on the precise state of the permissions, as an easy fix, just go to up to where they are still working (say the MediaPlayer key perhaps), right-click it, choose Permissions, then Advanced, click the 'Replace all existing inheritable permissions on all descendants with inheritable permissions from this object' and click OK. -- 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 -- "Diiimn" <Diiimn@newsgroup> wrote in message news:2CE47C3A-5E4E-477E-AFE6-FE493F512C45@newsgroup Quote: > I tried through add remove programs and it didn't work, can't remove all > windows live programs like essentials, call or upload manager. > > ![]() > > Edit > I just tried to uninstall using the revo uninstaller suggested by a friend > and tried reinstalling and this came up > ![]() > ![]() > > I also tried jonathan kay's latest msn .89 or something version .msi and > this still came up. > ![]() > > > Can any1 help and save me from reinstalling a fresh version of windows > vista, which I'm using? |
