There are a lot of updates that have been made in the newly released version of Windows Live Messenger (previously called MSN Messenger). In the past, you were provided with the feature to change display name, nickname or screen name. The display name needn’t necessarily have to be your real name. Now, Windows Live Messenger 2011 displays the details of first name and last name, which the user provides in Windows Live Profile, at the time of account creation
So, to change the personal details and display name, user has to make the changes in their configured and saved profile, which is inside the account profile of Windows Live. The original name is for the purpose of user identification in Windows Live Messenger, Hotmail, SkyDrive, and other parts of Windows Live.
Unfortunately, one more big change the user might face is the error message of “Your Name Contains Characters That Are Not Allowed”, which is if they will try to add emoticons with their display name. The reason for this is, now the use of punctuation symbols are prohibited with the first name and last name.
Now, as a Windows Live Messenger 2011 user, you might be wondering if there are any solutions of this problem. The answer is, YES, there is a solution of this problem. Please read on for solutions.
- Login to Windows Live Messenger 2011
- Edit your name by clicking on the username field, and selecting the drop down menu that appears. It is as simple as that
