I have been using Windows live mail 2011 on a windows 7 computer for the last 6 years or so. Have just purchased a new computer with windows 10, and purchased office 365 as well, and will use outlook 2016 as my email program.
I want to export my old emails and folders, etc to be able to use them in outlook 2016. I follow the instructions to export in windows live mail and chose "Export email" > email messages > Microsoft exchange, and click next. I get the dialogue box that says this will export WLM emails to Microsoft Outlook or Microsoft exchange. I click OK, and then nothing happens. The dialogue box disappears and I am back at the previous box below:
The screen just stays there, and nothing happens. From my other online searching, I should get a choice of which folders to export or something along those lines. If I click "cancel", the dialogue box comes up saying the export isn't completed yet, are you sure you want to exit the wizard? Nothing is happening in the background, so I have to exit.
I have always had automatic updates turned on. Is there an update missing from my windows live mail install? it is
Version 2011 (Build 15.4.3555.0308)
Note that I can export to the Microsoft Windows Live Mail format, but that does me little good as I can't import that into outlook 2016.
Please help. Thanks, Darryl.
