I recently got a new PC and I installed Escargot to talk to friends on it but whenever I try to sign in I'm greeted with this error: "Your contact list is not available right now, please try again later." Error code: 84cc0020 if anyone knows how to fix this please halp me!!
i'll be honest here, if you have a new PC, and you want older software like  WLM to work without any problems that might come up with  W10/W11,....  go to the internet archive, get a  Windows 7  Pro   ISO,  go into the comments section and get it's  serial.   Then you download & install Virtualbox.  Finally setup a  Win7  VM  specifically for these kinds of software.   The other reason why you might want to do this is to sandbox  old unmaintained/supported software.  The software hasn't been maintained by the developer (Microsoft) since 2013 at the latest.  Since then there might actually be some security vulnerabilities that effect the software. 
Anyways, the best way is to sandbox it inside a  VM ....Then of course, all of the bullshit you have to deal with using  Win10/Win11  are no longer an issue.
