This article supersedes the Installing/uninstalling Windows Live Wave 3 applications with the latest QFE (Quick Fix Engineering) release versions of the Windows Live “Wave 3” 2009 products.
Although what’s new is not completely known yet, one of the major problems has been video compatibility within Messenger, so hopefully this has been addressed.
There are only twelve items which have been updated to new versions from initial release versions. They are:
All other components are the same are do not need to be re-installed if you’re just upgrading. Please note that some of these components can not be automatically upgraded using the MSI files. You will need to first uninstall them manually and then install the new versions. You can find out how to uninstall these older versions using the previous version of this article.
If you haven’t used these articles previously, this entry lists all Windows Live Suite 2009 “Wave 3” applications, a download link to the Microsoft Installer (MSI) file, what’s also necessary to install each application and a method to properly remove each without the Windows Live installer. This allows you to install on non-supported Windows versions (Windows XP x64), fix broken Windows Live Installer installs or just to avoid the Live Installer altogether.
Note: A few of the packages come in both 32-bit and 64-bit varieties. If you’re not sure if you are using a 32-bit or 64-bit operating system, you most likely have a 32-bit operating system and should use the 32-bit packages. You can verify your operating system type using this article.
