- older version cannot be removed
- Posted by Paul on January 14th, 2008
Having had some problems using application sharing I decided to remove &
reinstall Windows Live Messenger. However when trying to install (both with
Live Installer & the Installer File) I get the error message "Older version
of Windows Live Messenger cannot be removed" and the installation fails.
As far as I can find the only earlier version of Messenger I have installed
is MSN Messenger 7.5 that has an update applied (according to add/remove
programs) that cannot be removed.
Is this a registry problem perhaps & if so any clues how I can rectify it
please?
