Downloaded around a week or so ago, Yahoo Messenger, and for some reason it is not even working on this system today....sorta as it may have crashed or became corrupted. Anyways, I completely uninstalled it and then downloaded/saved the application. Before reinstalling it, is there a caution(s) or tip(s) I should be aware of....? When I mentioned above that I completely uninstalled it, that was within the registy also....Am I to assume that I may have to log on and re-register Yahoo Messenger? 3T's.... P.S. Up to the crash, Yahoo Messenger was working just fine....
the beta version started crashing today !! Dunno why its the same for both of us !! I uninstalled the new one, downloaded the non beta version and its working fine !!
Thanks for the replies nirweb and John1970....as for the version of Yahoo Messenger I was having problems with was msg6suite. Never tried the Beta version at all, however, thanks for the advance issue problems you where having with the Beta....
i tried this link and it proved usefull i too couldn't use messenger 6 or 7, beta or final, because it crashed http://www.helpbytes.co.uk/cproblems.php#crash it says there 'Ypager crashes or performs an illegal operation on startup or right click This error occurs because you are using a third party skinning application that modifies the Windows Look/Interface. You need to either remove the program, or open the settings, and disable the skinning of Yahoo! Messenger / YPager. Two known programs to cause this are Window Blinds and AlienGUIse. Window Blinds has a "per application" setting to override this.' i was using win blinds, then created a special rule for yahoo messenger i really hope this is usefull
How frustrating! I have reinstalled messenger many times, but it keeps crashing almost everytime I right click. Any insight anyone??
Mine too keeps on cRashing....fed up of it...uninstalled and installed the older version. The beta version sucks.
I am new to this forum--but I am having the same problem with my Yahoo Messenger--tried downloading and installing an older version--it still crashes on a right click. I can't get any response from Yahoo. I have tried everything--even re-formatted my hard drive. Had Yahoo working for 3 days, then it started crashing again. When you find out which version is the one that doesn't crash, please reply to this post. Thanks
Yahoo Crashes every time I get on the damn thing, so does all of my Browsers, MSN and AIM did as well until I Upgraded to Windows Live Messenger in place of MSN and Downgraded from AIM Triton to the original AIM Build --My Dignity love and Heart have all been destroyed, they crashed as a Metior into the Ground of Earth as if a Cataclismic Catastrophy hath Occurred, they call me Laviathan, the one in Pain, and in recent years, I have nothing but Crashed Dignity--
