    For several hours, Windows Live Messenger 2011 incorporates a new platform for online games as a new tab in your instant messaging. To bring up the tab "Games" in Windows Live Messenger 2011, just clear your cache Messenger. The latter is in the temporary folder used by Windows.

    To empty the cache Messenger:

    • Close Windows Live Messenger 2011
    • Open the Start menu and type "% temp%" without quotes in the search box and press the Enter key
    • Delete all entries in the folder that just opened by selecting all of its contents.
    • Ignore files that can be removed
    • Reopen Windows Live Messenger 2011. The tab "Games" should appear
    .

    More about the same you can get on Windows Live Messenger 2011 up with Game Tab

    Windows Live Messenger 2011 introduces a new feature from a few hours: it was adding a new tab on the games! Like the image at top of this article shows, it will be seen next to other cards that you have set that in my case are social, MSN Games and precisely.

    The idea is to revive and revive the desire to play games with all Microsoft users that have the latest version of the popular instant messaging client (WLM 2011 in fact), but not limited to: the idea is also to powerfully boost the service games.msn.com made available to all Windows Live users.
