In my control panel there is no Windows Live Essentials or any Windows Live programs. When I go to install Windows Live Messenger, it says that the program will be updated after installation. If fails to update and install. I have ran it as Admin, I have deleted all the folders associated with Windows Live Essentials and I still cannot get it uninstalled to re-install it.

Can anyone help me?

I would suggest a repair install or restoring with restore disks or the computers built in system recovery if it has a recovery partition.

This was all I could find on this problem.

Start
Control Panel
Programs
Programs and Features
Windows Live Essentials
Click change/remove
It will then give you the option to pick which ''essentials" you want to remove. Ex:Messenger, Mail, Photo

Or Try this:

1/ Click the Start button
2/ When the Start menu opens look to the Right of the menu and you should see an option called 'Run'
3/ Click on Run to open the Run dialogue box
4/ In the Run dialogue box type: RunDll32 advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection %windir%\INF\msmsgs.inf,BLC.Remove
5/ Next press the OK button
6/ If all goes well you will be asked to restart your computer. Click Yes to restart
7/ Hopefully Messenger should now be removed

Incidentally you might find it easier to 'copy and paste' the above command line into the Run dialogue box rather than typing it yourself.

Or you can try this third party Windows Live Messenger Uninstaller.

Or you can try the Windows Live Solution Center.
