I even tried latest versions of Yahoo Messenger.

Okay. You need to follow some operations in order to be successful in sending a message. You already said that you have uninstalled and then again reinstalled the Yahoo Messenger program.

•     Now try clearing all the caches. Go to temp folder. If you don't know where it is located then do this:

                     -Open start and go to "run".  Now in "run", type "temp" and you will get a folder with many subfolders and files in it.                                       Delete all of them. Similarly type "%temp%" and delete all the files and folders in it.  Now restart Yahoo Messenger and then try to send the message. Hopefully, this should work.

•     Try using mostly Yahoo Messenger 7 because it has less number of bugs than Yahoo Messenger 9.  If you are fine, then uninstall the current Yahoo Messenger  and then install Yahoo Messenger 7.

Cheers!

Getting Yahoo Messenger Strange Error

It would  have helped if you posted what version of Yahoo! Messenger you are using.  Did this happen just recently and did Yahoo! Messenger work in the past?

This problem occurs apparently because Yahoo! Messenger needs write access to your hard drive but it either cannot find enough drive space or it doesn't have any permission to write to the hard drive.

Here's what I can suggest:

1. Uninstall your current Yahoo! Messenger.  Download and install the latest version.
2. Clean up your C drive.  Use Ccleaner (http://www.piriform.com/CCLEANER) to get rid of all unnecessary files and free up hard drive space.
3. Do you have write permission on the C drive?  Check and fix your user permissions.

Hope this helps.

Getting Yahoo Messenger Strange Error

Here are the facts about the discontinuation of Yahoo Messenger. After July 17, 2018, Yahoo Messenger will no longer be supported. After this date the service will no longer work and you will no longer be able to access your chats. You won’t be able to log in to Yahoo Messenger. According to Yahoo, there is currently no replacement product for Yahoo Messenger.

You can still be able to download your chat history to your computer until the end of November 2018. To download your chat history, go to Yahoo Messenger Download Manager. Here, you need to log in to your account again to verify. Once verification is successful, under “Yahoo Messenger data”, click “Download”.

Next, enter the email address where you want the notification to be sent when the download is ready then click “OK”. After this, just wait for the download on your email address.
