Issues Opening PLSC Files

Microsoft Windows Live Messenger Removed

When trying to open your PLSC file, you get the error "Can't Open PLSC File Type". Customarily, this means that Microsoft Windows Live Messenger is not installed on %%os%%. Because your operating system doesn't know what to do with this file, you won't be able to open it by double-clicking.


Tip: Another PLSC-related program can be selected to open the file by clicking "Show Apps" and finding the application.


Obsolete Version of Microsoft Windows Live Messenger

Your Messenger Plus! Live Script File file is incompatible with Microsoft Windows Live Messenger because you might have the wrong version installed. Download the latest Microsoft Windows Live Messenger version from the Microsoft Corporation website to ensure you have the correct one installed. This problem is most common when you have an older version of the software application, and your file was created by a newer version that it cannot recognize.


Tip: You can sometimes get hints about the right program version by right-clicking on the PLSC file, selecting "Properties", and looking at the version information.


Regardless, most of the PLSC file opening problems relate to not having the right version of Microsoft Windows Live Messenger installed.


More Causes of Problems Opening PLSCs

In the majority of cases, installing the right version of Microsoft Windows Live Messenger will resolve your issue. There can be external issues inside of %%os%% that are causing these errors when opening PLSCs. Additional factors include:

  • Invalid PLSC file references in the Windows Registry (the "phonebook" of the Windows Operating System)
  • The PLSC file description within the Windows Registry was removed
  • Partial installation of Microsoft Windows Live Messenger that did not fully complete
  • PLSC file corruption
  • PLSC file integrity has been compromised by malware
  • Device drivers for PLSC-related hardware are out-of-date
  • Windows cannot load your Messenger Plus! Live Script File file due to insufficient resources (eg. RAM)
