Hey all,

I need some help disabling/logging out of the Metro Messaging app. Since I got Live Messenger installed I don't need the Metro app. However, it still signs me in and in Live Messenger it says that I'm online on 2 locations (both on the same system). All my messages show up in both applications, which is annoying and useless.. Can't seem to find a way to disable the Metro one.

Help? :)

Hi Robin,
Right click the App in Metro and click "Unpin from Start" in the bottom left. Don't uninstall it as it will uninstall Calendar, People and Windows Live.
