Greetings Allure,

As a starting point, you should verify that the Windows Live Essentials has been removed from
Add or Remove Programs or Programs and Features. If you've already done that, you can just
do a manual install.

To manually install 8.5, download and run the following Microsoft Installer file:

For 2009, there are several components you have to install, which are listed here on my blog:
