Re: Windows Live Suite Downloads

Sorry folks,

We have had to remove the direct installer downloads due to copywrite issues.

Trust me, redistributing Microsoft code is a legal minefield, we decided to remove them rather than face the wrath of M$.

Re: Windows Live Suite Downloads

Thanks z3r010,
I know this is not the right thread to post this but I was wondering if you could tell, to which folder is Windows Live OneCare downloaded and what type of installer files .exe or .msi are they, so that one might keep them for future.
Cheers

Re: Windows Live Suite Downloads

Hi anobis 911,

I have not used Windows Live OneCare, so I do not know if it installs a MSI installer like the other Windows Live programs or not. You can do a thorough search using *.msi in the search box to find the location if one was installed though. Be sure to include System directories and compressed files in the search options.

Re: Windows Live Suite Downloads

I have installed the Windows Live suite. Do I need to install WLInstaller? Tried to do it and it claims that I have NOT installed Window Live Suite yet. What's the cause, anyone? Or Do I really need to install it at all?
Thanks everyone.

Re: Windows Live Suite Downloads

Hello Yetimal, and welcome to Vista Forums.

The WLInstaller is just ran to install the selected WL programs from within it. That's all. You can either save the WLInstaller and run it from the deskop, or just click on Run when downloading instead.

Usually there is a shortcut of the installer place on the desktop or Start Menu to use to install any additions WL programs though.

Hope this helps,
Shawn

Re: Windows Live Suite Downloads?

Hi everyone,
I am new in this forum.... Does anyone can tell me :
1) if the window live suite is a free download?
2) I tried to use window messenger but everytime I wanted to go further it always told me that I needed to install the window live suite, then gave me a code: mentioning"catastrophique failure.....

Now, i am desperate and really need your help. Thanks a lot.
Laurencer.

Re: Windows Live Suite Downloads

Hello Laurencer, and welcome to Vista Forums.

Yes, all of the Windows Live programs are free from Microsoft. You might try the latest beta version of Windows Live Messenger to see if it works better for you.

To get the most replies to your problem, you might post the problem in a separate post in the Windows Live forum since this thread is only for the Windows Live Suite of programs.

Hope this helps for now,
Shawn

Re: Windows Live Suite Downloads

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. Actually my biggest problem is: It seemed that the window live messenger was not fully installed which means: I kept receivng the code: 0x8000fff, I tried to figure it out then it told me to download Regcure to get rid of it.. I bought a new webcam which I really wish I will be able to use tomorrow but it didn't work the way I wanted...please help. Thanks a lot.
Laurencer.

Re: Windows Live Suite Downloads

Laurencer,

If you haven't already tried, you might see if reinstalling Messenger may help any. I used the beta version, and it works fine for me. Maybe you will have better luck with it.

G'Day Shawn,

I think that you'll now find that with effect from Thurs 8 January 2009, with the exception of Windows Live Movie Maker which remains in beta, that the rest of the Suite of Windows Live Programs were released as Version 2009. It appears as though most have the Build Tag of 14.0.8064.206, although I haven't been able to confirm that it holds true for all of them.

G'Day Rodredrum,

Try this and see how you get on;

Start> Control Panel [Classic View] > Programs and Features > Select "Windows Live Essentials, here;

>User Account Control - Continue, will open this window, here;

Select Repair, then Continue....

Let us know how it goes....I hope it helps..:huh:

Windows Live programs have been updated with new versions. See first post for more details.

Re: Windows Live Suite Downloads

Today we released an optional update for Wave 3 of the Windows Live Essentials suite in all 48 languages. This is a minor release that updates Windows Live Messenger, Mail, Family Safety, and Sync. You can install it from http://download.live.com, or through Microsoft Update as an optional update. While this is our last planned update for Wave 3, we will continue to support this release for the foreseeable future as it will be the last version that supports Windows XP.

This is a minor release with a small set of targeted bug fixes and minor changes. Even though most users will not run into the issues we addressed, we felt they were important to fix. This update also contains a small set of changes to ensure that Essentials supports new advances coming in Wave 4.

Rest assured, we’re continuing to work hard on Wave 4 and are in the final stretches. This update is a first and important step in that direction.
