it worked fine for me. anyways, i've uploaded a new addon, give that a shot. if that doesn't work either, you must be removing some component with NLite that's required for Messenger

DOES NOT WORK!

i tried this 3 times,,, and each time i only remove the built in windows messenger and the msn explorer.......and when the installation finished : NO WLM!

No errors, no nothing, it just does not install!

please fix it !

anyone else having problems ? i'm using nlite 1.0.1. i've tried these out. they do work fine at my end.

wow !!!! nlite 1.0.1 !!!! this so old man !

could u please try it out with nlite 1.3rc2 ?

  • Author

yeah but the most stable to date and the addon works fine when i install it manually as well so the addon is okay. i'm not going to the newer buggy versions (no offence intended to nuhi, but it's still a work in progress), i'll wait for the next stable release of nlite. meanwhile you could give v1.0.1 a try :P

Didnt work also,,,,,,i think i understood wt the problem is

the problem is that the Windows live messenger uses the 3.1 installer which is not supported in WinXP Setup mode...its not an Nlite bug.

2nd of all,,,, u cant say that nlite 1.3rc2 is buggy becauz it didnt work with ur Non-working addon....

ive already made another addon for WLM...and i tested it,....and its working 100%, i'll post it as soon as possible

GUYS TEST UR ADDONS IN A VMWARE INSTALLATION BEFORE POSTING HERE!!!!......The addon works fine in a normal Setup without integration...but when u integrate it...it doesnt work....becaz it require the 3.1 windows installer...

i DID NOT say that NLite was buggy because my addon didn't work with it. I said it has issues of its own which are constantly being fixed. and the addon was tested and worked perfectly in a vmware/virtual pc build alright ? it's also possible that you were messing up in some way. could somebody else please download and test those addons so the issue can be settled once and for all ? thanks.

Windows Live Messenger v8.1.0168 BETA tested on:

VMware Workstation 5.5.1.19175

nLite 1.2.1

WinXP SP2 Pro (quite a few components removed, no drivers or hotfixes integrated).

The result:
