i want to know if you can get instant messenger windows
back and look at what you typed even after you have
closed the window.


Or is there a way to save them automatically when you
close them

Greetings Josh,

Unfortunately Messenger doesn't automatically save conversations. As such, as soon as you
close the window, whatever you've typed (or received) is gone.

However, using a third-party utility (like Messenger Plus, http://www.msgplus.net), it will
automatically save your conversations for you.

Hi Andy,

To totally remove Windows Messenger, do the following:

Close down Messenger, if running (right click the messenger icon in the notification
area/system tray and click close). Then click the start button, then click Run and type in
(copy-paste if you like):

RunDll32 advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection %windir%\INF\msmsgs.inf,BLC.Remove

Then click OK.
Messenger will then be uninstalled. For more detailed instructions and screenshots, go to,
