Booted but WLM started.

I went into services and Manual Messenger.

Something here maybe ?

I would think the entry point would be Programs and features
control panel, as RaymondCC shows here. It is possible a later
version of Windows Live package, doesn't have Messenger in it.

"Additional Notes: It is best to create a backup of your computer through imaging
before using any of these tools to forcefully uninstall
Windows Live Messenger from your computer.

These tools are only made to delete Messenger related files, but
do not automatically create a backup for you to restore the
deleted files."
