I have had the same problem and applied the same fix. It works. . . ONCE. Then the next time I try to email someone using an email address on a website, I get the same message that WLDCore.dll is missing. HOW DOES ONE PREVENT THE SYSTEM FROM DELETING THE FILES AT SOME LATER TIME? Is there a way to protect the files so NOTHING except the Administrator can delete them?
BTW, it appears that the system only deletes WLDLog.dll; leaves the WLDCore.dll intact.
I had same issue. Here is how to fix it. This is easy and works! Thanks to whoever figured it out.
After long day of research, at last I got the solution. It seems the new Windows Live has grouped the wldcore.dll and wldlog.dll (used by Messenger, Contacts and Mail) to a folder c:\Program Files\Windows Live\Shared

Maybe because I did upgrade install it screwed up things.
The solution was simply copy paste those 2 files wldcore.dll and wldlog.dll from c:\Program Files\Windows Live\Shared to
- c:\Program Files\Windows Live\Messenger
- c:\Program Files\Windows Live\Contacts
- c:\Program Files\Windows Live\Mail
Now I can login to Windows Live Messenger and enjoy the whole Windows Live Essentials 2011 products.
How do I paste to the c\Program Files\Mail? Where do I find these programs?
So easy to do. BIG THANKS. You make a good teacher, so well set out
