Windows/currentversion/run (Figure 7), delete the "msmsgs" key value in the right-hand pane.

Uninstall Windows Messenger method

If you are sure that Windows Messenger is no longer needed, you can uninstall it to prevent it from running automatically, freeing up some disk space.

Open Explorer, navigate to the "C:/windows/inf" directory (where C is the system's partition letter, modify it yourself) to locate the "Sysoc.inf" file (Note that the file is hidden), open it in Notepad, and find it in the "Components" section. msmsgs=msgrocm.dll,ocentry,msmsgs.inf,hide,7 Line (Figure 8)

Delete the word "hide," and save it. Next, open the Control Panel, click Add or Remove Programs, click Add/Remove Windows Components in the window that appears, remove the check box (Figure 9) before the Windows Messenger option, and then click Next to Remove Windows Messenger.
