Download Messenger for Desktop for PC

This software bundle is absolutely free to download and install. As it is the unofficial messenger for Facebook users, there is no charge associated for the basic version.

This software bundle is regularly checked for viruses and other types of malware. Thus, users can remain confident that their personal details and the integrity of their operating system will not be compromised.

You will need to have an Internet connection in order to access this messenger (and Facebook in general). However, you can choose an offline mode so that other users will not be aware of your presence while chatting.

Please note that while not directly stated in the title, Messenger for Desktop has been designed to work only with Facebook. There are other third-party chat systems which can be chosen if you are looking to connect with other friends online.

One of the advantages of this software package is that it is able to work in tandem with Mac devices as well as standard desktop computers. However, please note that the installation process is likely to be a bit different and you may need to download additional software.

There is currently a version of this messenger specifically designed to be used with Windows 10 operating systems. After navigating to the official download page, simply choose the variant that is applicable to your requirements.

As this program is quite versatile, it has been designed to work with both 32- and 64-bit Windows operating systems. It should also be mentioned that 32-bit Mac OS formats alongside 64-bit options are available. Take a look at the options highlighted on the main download page.

Another interesting feature of this program is that you have many other options besides text messaging alone. You can send stickers, images, files and audio recordings with the click of a button. In some ways, it can be seen as functioning similar to other third-party systems such as Skype.

Once you access the official download page, you will need to click on the proper installation icon (relevant to your system). After an initial binary file is downloaded, you will be asked to install the full program. A wizard will guide you through the process and when completed, this messenger can be accessed immediately.

Although the exact update intervals will vary, an upgrade generally takes place when Facebook makes a change to their system or when a fault is detected within the software itself. These could occur every couple of weeks or on a bi-monthly basis.
