  • 1) stop the Live Mesh using context menu on taskbar icon
     
    2) to start Mesh manually use following batch file
     
    START "" "C:\Program Files\Windows Live\Mesh\WLSync.exe" /background
    PING 1.1.1.1 -n 1 -w 6000 >NUL
    REG DELETE HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run /v WLSync /f

    You are in the wrong forum as I noted in my first reply.

     

    Since you are referring to Windows Live Mesh, not Live Mesh - www.mesh.com, you are in the wrong forum. Yes, the naming convention is confusing, though I like that they kept the Mesh name alive for the upgrade to Live Sync (formerly FolderShare).

    Understood. What you desire is to control the startup. I replied based on your subject line and noted that you're in the wrong forum.
