Error code - 80072efd with Live Messenger
I have had Windows XP Home for quite a long time...I have had Messenger 7.5 since it came out...A couple of month ago I upgraded my Messenger to 8.1 beta on all six computers in my house..It worked on everyone but one which is them main computer I use in my home office. I could not logon to Windows Live Messenger because I keep getting the 80072efd error. So I finally went back to 7.5 on that computer because I just didn't have time to troubleshoot Microsoft's problems for them. Now fast forward to today....Microsoft forces everyone to upgrade there MSN Messenger to Live Messenger 8.1 but they didn't fix the 80072efd error...so those of us (and I am sure there is a lot of us) who have this problem are just out of luck...It does not matter that we have gotten everyone in our company on it and it is now a vital communications link...and don't say I can just go to Microsoft for help...they just tell me that there IS a charge unless I want to go the manufacture that I bought the computer from...oh yea...and if I do go to the manufacture, I just get someone in India that cannot spell MSN..

Error code - 80072efd with Live Messenger
I'm having the same problem, and it came up out of no where. My live
messenger has been working fine for the past two years. It worked fine this morning too. I restarted my router, but everything looks fine. I can also connecto to the internet, but google.com and yahoo.com don't display. I have some key word blocking setup on my router, but i turned them off and still no luck. I need some help lol "Kat" wrote: Hope someone can help me here, but i keep gettin the error code 80072efd everytime i try to sign into Live Messenger, now its telling me that the firewall maybe blocking it but its not cos i disabled it but made sure it had still been granted full access, I can sign into windows messenger but i wanna cam with my partner thats away from home!

Error code - 80072efd with Live Messenger
ok i did a little reasearch and my problem was that some of my .dll's needed
to be reregistered... that doesnt soudn like your problem though. anyways here's what i did. i went to "run" and then typed in: REGSVR32 softpub.dll initpki.dll wintrust.dll i'm using vista and got an error message with the initpki.dll. It still fixed my problem =) oh lol i just noticed this post is a year old...

Greetings,
Although a few things are off on some of these old posts, these libraries haven't changed in Vista, so it's still valid advice. -- 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 -- "Never_Quit" wrote in message ... ok i did a little reasearch and my problem was that some of my .dll's needed to be reregistered... that doesnt soudn like your problem though. anyways here's what i did. i went to "run" and then typed in: REGSVR32 softpub.dll initpki.dll wintrust.dll i'm using vista and got an error message with the initpki.dll.

hey thanks bro
i did a little more research and figured out that initpki.dll doesnt exist in vista and thats what the error is from Here is a list of existing ones for vista that i refreshed just for the heck of it... softpu.dll wintrust.dll rsaenh.dll mssip32.dll cryptdlg.dll dssenh.dll i think thats it and here are some that i tried that didnt work initpki.dll gpkcsp.dll slbcsp.dll sccbase.dll i guess those are for xp and not for vista.

Hi guys, After checking my firewall settings, the following helped me get rid of this error on my vista premium home edition: Step1: login as administrator step2: start-cmd - right click-run as administrator. step3: type this and press enter : C:\Windows\system32netsh int tcp set global autotuninglevel=disabled * this step takes some time. step4: Restart msn. Hope this helps -- swanandshende ------------------------------------------------------------------------ swanandshende's Profile: http://forums.techarena.in/members/86905.htm View this thread: http://forums.techarena.in/windows-messenger/799440.htm http://forums.techarena.in |

error code 80072efd
I have had this problem for some months now and the only available help via google is to direct you to download xp repair software and fixes that don't fix the problem. Why is windows live not working on my PC ... I can access it via the internet but not via my pc. No solution yet... so much for the boffins.
