The "Share Information Using Live Meeting" option is unavailable in Office Communicator 2007 and in Office Communicator 2007 R2

SYMPTOMS

In Microsoft Office Communicator 2007 or in Microsoft Office Communicator 2007 R2, when you create an Instant Messaging conversation, you find that the Share Information Using Live Meeting option is unavailable from the dropdown menu in the upper-right corner of the conversation window.

This problem occurs after you install Microsoft Office Live Meeting 2007 or Microsoft Office Communicator 2007 R2 and then you uninstall Microsoft Office Communicator 2005.

CAUSE

For a x86-based operating system, this problem occurs because the following registry subkey is missing from the registry.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Communicator\SessionManager\Apps\{27877e66-615c-4582-ab88-0cb2ca05d951}
For a x64-based operating system, this problem occurs because the following registry subkeys are missing from the registry.
  • HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Communicator\SessionManager\Apps\{27877e66-615c-4582-ab88-0cb2ca05d951}
  • HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Communicator\SessionManager\Apps\{27877e66-615c-4582-ab88-0cb2ca05d951}
The registry subkeys are added when you install Live Meeting 2007 or Office Communicator 2007 R2. However, if you uninstall Office Communicator 2005, this registry subkeys are removed unexpectedly.
