Why i cant open my yahoo messenger?

Why cant i open my Yahoo Messenger on my desktop?

  • well, i cant open yahoo messenger in my desktop i click on it several times but still i cant open it. I removed it and downloaded yahoo messenger 9 but still, it cant be opened. What am i going to do? thanks.

  • Answer:

    Do this,,,, Click on Start Button/ Settings/ Control Panel/ Add or Remove Programs. DUMP anything that says Yahoo Messenger (toolbar, address book etc etc etc) they will be listed at the bottom of that window), and go to this website,,,,, http://www.oldversion.com/program.php?n=... and install the 7.0 (my suggestion, one of which I HAVE NEVER HAD PROBLEMS WITH). BE SAFE Cheri PS. Stay away from the 9.0 version it still has bugs being worked out, and like I suggested, the 7.0 is the most stable. And no you will NOT lose any Contacts from a previous version you ran, they are all saved on Yahoos Server and will transfer to whatever version you install.

You need to make sure you have the latest Macromedia Flash Player installed. If you don't have the flash player installed messenger will not open and crash before you are able to sign in. Please note: Use Internet Explorer to install the player. You can get the latest Flash player, by clicking here. >> http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash and also Install the latest Java here >>> http://www.java.com/en/download/index.jsp

There may be several reasons it could be an error while installing the program and also it could be a virus eating up the .exe file the best way to fix this error is to completely remove the software and try installing some old versions or check with an anti-virus software like avira anti vir . The same problem happened with me but after i checked with my anti virus it got corrected .
