    Messenger will not work


    I have messenger installed on my IPhone and my laptop and it works just fine, however on my desktop it will not.
    Here is what is going on:
    I click on Messenger and it opens like normal and then i click on the Camera to start the conversation, but it will never open the next window it just says "loading"

    now i click on the 3 dots and select "something is wrong"

    Messenger will not work [​IMG]

    Then i select other and then technical issue

    Messenger will not work [​IMG]

    after that it will work, but only for this session. after i close messenger i have to do all that again to get it going again
    I can do that, if i want to make the call. but if someone calls me it will take to long and then i miss the call.
    any one know how to fix that?
    Thanks
    Sven

  2. Windows 10 Facebook and Messenger app not showing notifications

    We appreciate you for providing the information to us.

    If the Messenger app doesn't show on the list under Notifications & Actions, it's possible that there are too many apps that are using the push notification. There is a limit to the number of apps you have installed that has push notifications enabled. You
    may consider removing other apps that are not in use and check if it helps.

    In addition, you can also try to check the Default App for Protocol to prioritize Messenger as the default. To do this, follow the steps listed below:

    • Type Default app settings in the Search bar.
    • Click Choose default apps by protocol.
    • Look for the Messenger app then click on it.
    • Restart PC and check if it works.
    Let us know how it goes after performing the suggested steps.
