How to Disable Windows Live Messenger
March 10th, 2008 by admin | No Comments | Filed in Tips & Tricks, windowsI have installed Windows Live Messenger on my computer. Everytime I visit Hotmail to check mail or open Internet Explorer, Windows Live Messenger starts. I disabled this messenger from startup but I cannot figure out to stop it from activating itself every time I open IE.
We can try disabling Windows Live Messenger from opening up every time you start Internet Explorer with the following steps. Open Internet Explorer, click on ‘Tools I Manage Add-ons’. In the list of add-ons, look for ‘Windows Live
Sign-In Helper’. Select it and click on the ‘Disable’ radio button. Click on ‘OK’ and restart your computer. This add-on is usually installed because a component called ‘Windows Live Sign-In Assistant’ is usually installed during the initial setup. Disabling this should solve your problem.
