Hi all,

My share folders disappeared and can't seem to recreate. Returns the
message: "Your sharing folders aren't yet available"

It was working fine for months. It works fine on my secondary machine. (both
are connected to as local area network).

Windows file wall is turned off.

Can't uninstall or repair Messenger Live either. Says it missing a file.
Suspect that file was removed when I ran Ad-Aware recently.

TIA

Hi again,

OK finally found a utility that removed Messenger and then installed again.
This version is slightly newer (8.5.1302.1018), perhaps the latest????
Anyway it appears to be back up and running again since I have sharing
folders and actually is synchronizing with a user.

Whew what a struggle. Most of the day spent with this problem!!!
