Greetings,

You may just want to do a manual install from the Microsoft Installer files (MSI) themselves
(that's all the installer downloads).

You can grab them from here:

I don't know if I did anything incorrect but I downloaded the files on your
page , and I notice messenger did download on my system . But it was
unresponsive and wouldn't open . I had Messenger on this same system , but I
recently just did a total factory reset and loaded windows 7 again .

download the Windows Live Essentials from the Windows Updates it give me the
same message error .
