Since the disastrous changes came with the Windows 8 unification I can't delete old statuses (personal messages) in the social network stream of the Windows Live Messenger. 
When I switch to the full size view to see the social network media and go to "me", I can see all my old personal messages I posted the last three months but I can't delete them. The cog shows me just a link with (useless) "more options". Since the whole Live Profile pages are scrubbed there's no way to find elementary settings like these on the new Microsoft account pages as well. I hope this will be fixed soon or you have a helpful advice to solve this issue. 

note: Terms may be incorrect, I use the German country setting.
why do i have to sign into every thing i go into windows live messenger it is very frustrating
When I try to sign in to Windows Live Messenger, the list of friends appears on my screen as normal and then disappears immediately.  I tried to download the latest version ( not sure if I already had it)  but it says I already have Windows Live Messenger! Help!
When I log on I receive a message "Windows Live Messenger has encountered a proplem and needs to close. We are sorry for any inconvenience". What can I do?

I keep getting the Error Code 800488eb in Windows Live Messenger.  
my messenger is set to show when I turn on my computer and when I go to windows live home page it's still fine but if I leave the home page to go to another web site it cuts out and the messenger goes blank and it will say re connecting in ...and then it counts down showing a time and then when it gets to 0:00 it says it's reconnected but I'm not. and then it won't acknowledge that I'm signed in.the only thing that fixes it and it's just temporary is to  restart my computer and then it all starts all over again. I checked the status of all the services and they all say everything is normal. should I try to uninstall it and then reinstall it. I've had major problems with it in the past also and had to pay at tech to fix it,twice now. I even went to the Help and support but couldn't find any answers to trouble shoot because I have Firefox as my browser and it only helps IE. I'm at my wits end,help please!

I foolishly installed Skype and merged my Windows Live Messenger account with the understanding that I would be able to video chat with Messenger clients. Well, I can't. Turns out that my Mom cannot receive a Skype call. When she tried to install Skype, she got a "system did not meet the AGE LIMIT  for  MY COUNTRY" message. To make matters worse, it looks like Skype removed the msnmsgr.exe executable from my system. I tried downloading windows live essentials and reinstalling. It just says it's up to date and does not install messenger.

 

I have been video chatting with my Mom, who lives 3000 miles away, for years now. That is how I check how she is doing. Because she is 86, it is important for me to see how she looks. So I really need to know how to get Messenger back on my system or how to get Skype installed on her system.

 

Thanks for any advice you can give.

 

 

I installed the full Skype program that replaces Windows Live Messenger but I cannot see an 'email envelope' icon within Skype (like there was in Messenger) that shows new messages and the ability to click on the envelope icon to open Hotmail automatically.

How can I view new messenges when signed in to Skype?

 

Thanks.
