Windows Live Messenger 8.1 not working in Windows 8.1

Hello, I have tried to get the patched version of WLM 8.1 on my installation of Windows 8.1 working, but I have had no luck. I tried running it as an admin, that didn’t work, I tried running in compatibility mode as Windows Vista, but that didn’t work aswell. If there are any solutions to the problem I am having, then please do tell me.

Sincerely,
YTA.

P.S. The error code I am getting is: 80072f78

Try running the Escargot Troubleshooter. If that doesn’t work, make sure that IE isn’t set to offline mode.

@yta try to put on the compatibility tab: Windows XP and admin rights and try again.
