What can I do to open a pptx PowerPoint attachment to email when I get this ominous-sounding warning:  “Prohibited file type.  This message contains an attachment whose file type is considered dangerous. The file has been deactivated.”    Thanks, Ruth

Hi

Looked everywhere I think past few hours. I have a Digital ID for 1 account on Windows Live Mail. However there are about 5 email accounts. I know there is

the option to digitally sign ALL outgoing messages, but of course the accounts that do not have the ID prompt you and you have to manually deslect this. Conversely if you deselect digitally sign ALL outgoing messages, you then have to manually select the 1 one account with the digital ID each and every time you send a message.

Surely there is a way to assign digitally sign ONE ACOUNT all outgoing messages? Even if it is registery hack it will help.

Thanks.

When I try to send it goes to the outbox and sits there I get the following message

The connection to the server has failed.

Subject 'Fw: test'

PS. This is the most complicated and annoying help center. It is soooo complicated to figure out how to even ask a question or find an answer... FRUSTRATING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can export email messages in WLM format without a hitch. My problem is that I cannot export in Outlook (Exchange) format.

I purchased HUP Office 2013 Pro several months ago, and finally decided to use Outlook 2013 for email. When I try to export my hundreds of existing emails from WLM Version 2012 (Build 16.4.3528.0331) running Win8.1, I get this error:

Outlook is fully setup and works great. I have tried with Outlook open and closed while trying the export, but the same error happens each time. Another forum suggested 3d party software ($49), but I refuse to pay for something that should work in the MS product.

When I click "Repair Now", WLM freezes for a few seconds and then closes. Outlook remains open and unaffected.

How to fix, please?

Live 12 runs fine sending and receiving for serveral days.  Then, all of a sudden, it stops sending mail and gives me "server" errors and some options that do not seem appropriate.  I check my settings...on outgoing and don't see that anything changed...What can I do to stop this?  I re booted. 

I keep getting the Win Live Mail has stopped working after re-installing windows and running all the windows updates.

I have tried uninstalling the KB 2670838 update but am still getting the same problem.

I have also gone into ctrl panel and tried to repair but still noting.

I am running windows 7 home premium 64 bit.

This program was working perfectly fine before windows re-install.

Any help would be greatly appreciated as I use this email program for work.
