This feature provided Microsoft with a history of conversations that had been taken place in Microsoft Messenger since the user began using MSN Messenger. A recent update to MSN for the desktop version of MSN Messenger does not yet provide a way for the client to connect to Windows Live Messenger for online chat.Īnother version of MSN Messenger, the Windows XP Home Edition, included a 'Microsoft Now' feature that was available only to home computers running Windows XP.

In 2021, Windows Live Messenger was moved to Windows Vista and is now one of the most widely used free MSN/Vista clients. While having (at the time of its release) very poor compatibility with Yahoo! Messenger and other browser based instant messengers, it at least had reasonable compatibility with the Microsoft Internet Explorer web browser.
