Have you followed the steps above to repair Windows Live Messenger? I have tried to do a re-install too, and for some reason it wouldn’t fix the Error, so I had to do a repair and it finally fixed the Error Code 80191002 that I had on my system.

Microsoft need to provide a better solution. Happens too often; and when I’m busy with several apps open the last thing I want to do is restart my computer.

I’ve tried that solution houndreds of times and it didn’t work.
I’ve sent an e-mail to msn support in order to get other solution. If so, I’ll post it here!

What OS are you running Windows Live messenger on? Can you give a lit bit more details what you have tried to do? (Uninstall, reinstall, Registry Cleaning, etc.)

Unfortunately, these steps do not help me. It all boils down to restart your computer. When you’re in the middle of a project and have been for many weeks, restarting is just NOT an option.
Bottom line: MSN is broken and needs some recoding.
