Vista - windows live messenger error code 80072efd

Hi everyone!!

I thought someone can help me on this one.....

About 2 weeks ago there was a new version of windows live messenger available.....I was running I think 8.1 and the 8.5 was available....I tried to download it.It worked but since I've done it,I can't connect anymore on live messenger.....they give me this error code 80072efd...

I checked on internet to find out what the code means and I had a list of things to do.....so I did them.

now they were telling on internet that I had to reinstall WLM on my computer witch I tried and did not work......still the same error code when I try to connect myself.I sent an e-mail to the live support.....they sent me back a answer with things to try.....I did try them but now it there that I have the problem.

wintrust.dll module has been found but the call to dll register service has failed with the error code 0x80070005.
What do I do to fix that???????

and the next one is the initpki.dll module.....they say on my computer that it cannot be found.So what do I do?????

Oh and by the way,I'm running vista home premium on a new hp laptop that I bought meself a few months ago

So can anyone help me please?????

1. Click start, then click 'RUN', type

%windir%\system32\regsvr325\system32\msxml3.dll

after you have typed in this command Click OK.

2. Click OK again.

3. Try to sign in to MSN Messenger again.
this should resolve the issue..

Hi guys,

the following helped me get rid of this error on my vista premium home edition:

Step1:> login as administrator
step2:> start->cmd -> right click->run as administrator.
step3:> type this and press enter : C:\Windows\system32>netsh int tcp set global autotuninglevel=disabled
* this step takes some time.
step4:> Restart msn.

Hope this helps.........

I have this too... I've tried everything I can think of and nothing.

xaviefra this is Vista not XP, that location doesn't exist.

Edit: This started happening after daylight savings, possible culprit?
