Windows Messenger in Media Center

[Guest]

When I open the Media Center to watch TV, I clicked on MyTV and I get the
message "Windows Messenger could not be found on your system",and disappear
after a while, however,I can do anything on the Media Center. I tried
uninstalling and reinstalling windows messenger from Add/Remove windows
components ; installed windows messenger 5.1, but the message still comes up.
When I tried to open the windows messenger 5.1 which I installed, the
hour-glass flickered and went away,cannot open it. I disabled the firewall
and antivirus,same problem. Is there any way to resolve this? Why won't
windows messenger work? Please help.

Greetings Zoey,

Download and run both of these .reg files:

You'll need to reboot to see the change.
