You need the latest version of Windows Messenger...
I'm having a problem with MSN Messenger 6.2 (6.2.0205) under WinXP Pro/SP2.
When I want to use any of these features: Whiteboard Remote Assistance Application Sharing I get a message like the following: "Your invitation was not sent because you need the latest version of Windows Messenger to use the ...blah... feature. Please go to the Windows Messenger update site to install the latest version." I have gone to the update site and downloaded the latest installer and tried both repair and remove/install but the problem remains the same. Any ideas anybody? |
