2 quick tips:

For it not to appear always on top go to the tools menu.

If install fails go to documents and setting/local data/temp/uk456.exe and run it *** Delete your messenger folder from program files before doing this. And it will install perfectly.

Just tested the new live contact info.

Click on your Display Picture.

Flip your personal contact card.

Et voila ! push the Live Contact card to enter your info and select with who you want to share personal or business info

NB : Better to select Custom ... to have the choice to enable your infos visible for selected contacts

The thrid time is the charm...:p (that's how many times I have done it...)

And oh yeah, anyone noticed this?, it looks like a new way to organize your contacts...

How did you get the big display icons for the contacts - i just have the little MSN7.5 Style icons.....

When the download finishes close WLM unistall previous versions..make sure you delete all the contents on MSN Messenger folder. go to your windows temp folder and locate the installer. its about 14 mb and its name is in random letters.

Finally got it working. Uninstalled 562. Deleted MSN Messenger folder. Installed 365 again. Went to Local Settings\Temp and found the 13.5MB file

Installed it. And now 566 :D

IMO ... it looks better now. Hope the icons will be replaced. The look is now simplified but still stylish

i much more prefer this one to the earlier one 562 one

the whole colouring thing clooks much better, it doesnt ahve that annoying seperation across the top in 562 for the title bar that made some colours horrible

it looks much more refined, though i would prefer new icons

it sill has that annoying red pixel in the taskbar -_-

all in all, much better than the previous two builds in my opinion :D

Well 5x times trying to update, now updated and not that great. Too "white" for me. And even with others colours still white too much. In 562 I complain about those old MSN icon and now it?s even worse LOL. Well I loved that hover effect on first WLM build and with the time going on I think that WLM is going more and more like 7.6 ou 7.7 version but not 8.0 at all.

Let?s hope this change.

See ya.

    • You pay just $100 per TB with this rare 4TB PCIe Gen4 NVMe SSD deal

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      You pay just $100 per TB with this rare 4TB PCIe Gen4 NVMe SSD deal by Sayan Sen SSDs and GPUs are incredibly hard to get nowadays due to high pricing. Discounts are quite rare which is why we report on them as soon as we spot a good deal. For example AMD's new 9070 GRE was finally up for sale at a very good price of just $500 thanks to a special coupon. Sadly that deal is gone but if you happen to be looking for a 4TB NVMe SSD and can spend around $400 there is a really good offer on sale that you should not miss out on as TeamGroup's 4TB G50 model is on sale for that that price which means you are only paying $100 per TB, a very good deal in the current market (purchase link under the specs table down below). The TeamGroup T-FORCE G50 NVMe SSD is a PCIe Gen4 drive and as such it promises to deliver sequential read speeds of up to 5,000 MB/s, helping accelerate game loading, file transfers, and everyday computing tasks. Since this is a 4TB drive you can use it for a gaming library to take advantage of things like DirectStorage. The SSD features an InnoGrit controller and SLC caching technology to support consistent performance. An ultra-thin, patented graphene heatsink is included to aid in heat dissipation. Get it at the link below: Team Group T-FORCE G50 4TB Internal SSD (TM8FFE004T0C129): $449.99 + $50 off w/ promo code SSF69668, limited offer => $39.99 (Sold and Shipped by Newegg US) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.

      I agree. I also think Phil stayed too long. They should definitely fire whoever thought all a console platform needed was Call of Duty, Elder Scrolls, and Fallout to survive. Asha and crew are still saying they need more Elder Scrolls and Fallout games. They simply don't get it.
