[Guest]

I am having trouble deleting windows 4.7 messenger. I have done what it says from the help menu but, it seems to still be there. Can anyone help?

Greetings Pam,

To remove Windows Messenger 4.7, close down Messenger if it's running (right click the
messenger icon in the notification area/system tray and click close). Then click the start
button, then click Run and type in (copy-paste if you like):
RunDll32 advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection %windir%\INF\msmsgs.inf,BLC.Remove

Then click OK.
Messenger will then be uninstalled. For more detailed instructions and screenshots, go to,

Hi Andre,

4.7 is required if you wish to use Application Sharing or Whiteboard in 6.1, otherwise, you
can remove it.
