Windows Messenger Connection Wizard
Does this really exist? If so where?
Under Help in Windows Messenger 5.1 (Tips and Troubleshooting) {Why can't I communicate using advanced features?} There is a link for the Windows Messenger Connection Wizard. When you click on said link it does NOT take you to said wizard. Please help! Desparate to AV conference

Windows Messenger Connection Wizard
Greetings,
As far as I was aware, the connection wizard never actually shipped for Windows Messenger (there was one, but I don't think it was ever finished). Assuming you're just using the public .NET Messenger network, why not try using MSN Messenger instead? http://messenger.msn.com/download ____________________________________________ Jonathan Kay Microsoft MVP - Windows Messenger/MSN Messenger Associate Expert http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/expertzone/ Messenger Resources - http://messenger.jonathankay.com All posts unless otherwise specified are (c) 2005 Jonathan Kay.

Windows Messenger Connection Wizard
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\RTCIMSP
set FirstTimeUser to 1 This allowed me to bypass the wizard which wouldn't work Maybe someone more knowledgable can fill me in if there's a better way. Sorry for waking this old thread to life, but I thought it appropriate to provide a solution. "TLT" wrote: Does this really exist? If so where?

Hi,
Actually the wizard mentioned by the original poster is the web-based connectivity wizard which used an ActiveX control -- not the audio tuning wizard that the application uses, so there's no reg key involved. For best results for Audio/Video outside of an enterprise, Windows Live Messenger should really be used now instead anyway. -- Jonathan Kay Microsoft MVP - Windows Live Messenger MSN Messenger/Windows Messenger MessengerGeek Blog: http://www.messengergeek.com Messenger Resources: http://messenger.jonathankay.com (c) 2008 Jonathan Kay - If redistributing, you must include this signature or citation -- "Grytolle" wrote in message ...

Windows Messenger Connection Wizard
I prefer using windows messenger because of its smaller resource usage.. I
don't have to close it when playing games et cetera. Anyway, my problem had nothing to do with audio... When I just installed it, I had to follow the ..NET-passport wizard something which wouldn't work, that's what I managed to bypass with that registry key.
