When I m instolling my yahoo messenger m receiving this error localsetting emp9497169ymsgr_inst_exe is not a vaild win32 application

You must address this issue to Yahoo support.

1. Reboot your computer.
2. Press Ctrl+Alt+Del on your keyboard. This will bring up the Windows Security window. Click the "Task Manager" button and then click the "Task Manager" tab.
3. You will see a list of files/applications. These are the applications running in the background on your system, whether they show on your taskbar or not. Any one of these applications could be causing a conflict with the Yahoo! Messenger installation.
4. Click the top item on the list to highlight it. Then hold the "Shift" key down and click the last item on the list. This should highlight the whole list.
5. Click the "End Task" button. This will temporarily close all background applications on your system.
6. Click the "X" in the upper right corner to close the Task Manager window.
7. Install Yahoo! Messenger. You should not experience the same issue that you had before.
8. After Yahoo! Messenger is installed,run registry cleaner reginout also reboot your system. All other background applications will return to their original configurations.

Download the correct Yahoo Messenger.

Find out what your Operating System is, if its 32bit or 64bit version.

Then download the correct Messenger that corresponds with your OS.

Hope this helps, give me thumbs up please!

here... try this one. This is yahoo messenger version 9. Click it to start the download. The yahoo.exe application is working and not corrupted.

Yahoo Messenger 9.0

I'm having the same problem, not quite sure whether it is happending due to upgrade to IE 8 or Windows Installer 4.5 installation. Cleanup and re-install of Yahoo Messenger 10 won't help. The YahooMessenger.exe fails to initialize right during the installation process.

Try steps mentioned in this link

If all fails then we need to format the pc and reinstall the OS. this will surely fix this problem

The application is not supported by the win32 system file of your windows XP

That should be a virus problem.

Please try installing from a stand alone. I am giving a link of this.

click here and download.


Please let me know, how it goes.

Hi,

You could try to restore the system to the day before

or

You can use this app to uninstall your program completely even from the registry

I think the installation of the messenger stopped, you could use this app to rollback
