title: MSMQ - message queuing has not been installed on this computer
body: <p>I have written a sample application to write to a public and private queues that are on dev server. I don't have the message queue installed on my local machine. </p>
  
  <p>I am getting error: message queuing has not been installed on this computer.</p>
  
  <p>Error is on this line:</p>
  
  <pre><code>MessageQueue.Exists(queueName)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Here is the full test code, all commented and not commented private and public queues are resulting in the same error. What am i doing wrong here?</p>
