Hey,

The only broken install is Internet Explorer 7. The others work fine but have been added along with your updated Windows Live Messenger so could possibly be the cause too.

The only item I install before Internet Explorer 7 that I've listed above is Windows Live Messenger, I'll try various fixes but I'd prefer a resolution (your time allowing) rather than some kind of bodge job if it turns out it's related to your updated WLM package.

Thanks.

laze.

I'm not offering a 'bodge job'.

It seems these problems are specific to your installation. I don't have these issues and I havent heard from anyone else experiencing these issues. I offered a solution to your problem.

Hello,

I apologise, it appears it was a 'fluke'. I've since installed my installation 3 times without changing a thing and each time Internet Explorer 7 installed itself.

laze.

Ok, I need to confess something, I told a porky.

I didn't test it 3 times, I actually ran the installation on my virtual machine once with Internet Explorer successfully installing. After an honest 3 more attempts since, it has failed everytime.

After commenting (REM) out your latest WLM release and accompanying add-ons (Ink / Safety Scanner) Internet Explorer 7 Installs fine.

The solution may be as you suggested, to move WLM so it installs after Internet Explorer 7 but a limitation of your Safety Scanner add-on would mean I'd have to remove it (you specify to install it before Internet Explorer 7 on your homepage).

Can you replicate this issue? I'm using Sho_guns RunOnceEx add-on.

laze.

Final version is out for 8.1 (see MSFN home page).

I didn't have time to read through the rest of this thread, so I apologize if this has been answered already. Is your repository down, Shark007? I haven't been able to access either link for quite a while now.

Thanks for the tutorial, Shark007. :)

EDIT: This may be new for WLM 8.1.178 Final, but it should be mentioned that HkcuAutoLaunch must be deleted from the Registry table in the MSI to prevent the messenger from starting at first logon.

The tutorial has been updated to include SVCPACK compatibility information.

I also updated the file offered on my repository to 8.1 FINAL.

Yo Shaky I made a Windows Defender WinRAR sfx installer that can be updated VIA a CMD file... Maybe you can make something like it but for your WLM installer... It can grab the Patched Files and Add them to the EXE

Sorry I'm pretty new here. I'm trying to make my apatched modified msn ua installer, but I'm a little confused on how to do it. I've so far used orca to modify the tables, extracted the newly modified msi, a-patched modified files.. then what do I do after this?

How do I repack the .MSI package with my new patched files. Thanks

In the Property table there is InstallMode. Which Is set to Complete...

What could be set for just Messenger Live?

I cant disable Set Homepage or MSN toolbar or that music service :(

Thanks a lot ;)
