I have uninstalled and reinstalled Windows Live Mail three times now. Each time, it reinstalls, attempts to open, and gives an error message that "Sorry, something unexpected happened..." and WLM starts "not responding" and has to be closed. There is no error code.

I recently wiped out my computer and reinstalled everything, and the information that is in there is from the backups that I imported, so I'm not worried about losing my information. I just need to wipe WLM COMPLETELY OFF MY COMPUTER and reinstall it.

I did a FRESH install of WLM and when I ran it the first time, it STILL gives me the error message. HOW CAN I COMPLETELY DELETE THIS FROM MY SYSTEM AND START OVER??????

Note: I have also attempted to "repair" the installation. That does nothing either.

I have been having problems getting my Hotmail account to either send or receive any mail at all, and then my Wanadoo account started to give problems too - it would receive mail but not send it!  I tried re-installing the accounts but this made no difference so I uninstalled the Windows Live Essentials programme and downloaded a fresh shiny copy.

It went well until 'sign in' (using my Hotmail address and password) when it came up with the error message 80072eff. 

I tried setting up a new password on my Hotmail address and tried again to no avail !!

Please help!!!!!

Thank you!!

I have an outlook.com email address, call it '*** Email address is removed for privacy ***'. I have this set as my primary. I have an alias, call it '*** Email address is removed for privacy ***'. Using Windows LIve Mail in Windows 7. When I go to send an email, I click to use addr2. But when it sends it the recipient shows it coming from addr1. When I do a reply to an incoming email, I also click the addr2 to send from. The recipient ends up getting 2 copies of the email. 

What good is an alias if the reciepent can see the primary? And why does it send it twice?

Thanks for the help,

Jim

Our customer has a PC with Windows 7 Professional SP1 and all updates.

They use Windows Live Mail as a mail client and we need to migrate it to Microsoft Outlook 2013.

We have problems when trying to export to PST file, during the migration progress, the status bar stops in a % showing an error.

 Searching solutions in internet seems that a corrupt e-mail has been found in the Windows Live Mail folders and that’s the reason why Outlook can’t continue the migration process.

The only solution we found to solve this is to check the original Windows live mail mailbox using as a reference the already migrated mails in outlook (mails migrated before the System hang) and delete the corrupt mail and continue with the next corrupted mail.

But my customer has more than 150000 mails in the Windows Live Mail.

Is there any tool where we could delete automatically the corrupted mails form Windows Live Mail?

Awaiting your prompt reply

Best regards
