Windows Live Mail FAQ
I am running Windows 8.0 Pro 64 bit.
I had a power failure while I was using Windows Live Mail 2012 and I am now getting this error.
Every time I exit Windows Live Mail 2012 I get a message "Windows Live Mail 2012 Recovering unused disk space" then Windows Live Mail restarts.
I have tried uninstalling Windows Live Mail 2012 and reinstalling Windows Live Mail 2012 but I still get the same error.
I welcome suggestions how I can over come the problem.
Kind regards,
Walter
Hi, I hope someone can advise, this is driving me nuts! Just got a new computer and am running Live mail 2012 on Windows 7. Everything working just fine until today when after deleting e-mails and sub folders on the old computer - running windows xp - I found that they had also disappeared from the new one.
Eventually I restored Live Mail to an earlier restore point and everything came back. Now comes the weird bit - whenever I close Live mail the subfolders vanish again? The only way I can get them back is to restore again which obviously is not practical. The subfolders are still there somewhere because if I try to create a new subfolder with the same name I get told I can't because it already exists.
I've tried many solutions mentioned online but nothing works -
Any ideas?

I am using Windows live mail with Windows 8. I have endless problems with it, the latest one is this - an email was sent to me and was obviously phishing. I went to forward it to a site that deals with suspect emails but it won't go through. I keep getting a message saying it is too big to send. I would like to cancel the whole thing but where do I find the outgoing mail box? I can't find it anywhere. Please help me as the message constantly popping up is driving me crazy.
Original title: windows live mail
I am using windows live mail on a win7 box. I have multiple email accounts in this client. I have my hotmail.com account, my msn.com account, aol.com account and my gmail.com account along with my daughters live.com account. With all of the account except one, I can send, receive and delete emails. My msn.com account stopped updating two weeks ago.
I searched for solutions for days and tried them all. Nothing seemed to work. I finally removed live mail and re-installed it. Now I get emails on my msn.com account, but I cannot delete them. All of the other accounts work just fine, but this is my primary account. Does anyone have a solution for this? Outlook was also having the same problem getting email on this computer until I deleted live, now outlook is working again and I can delete but it is not my primary email reader. I use that for work email.
This is getting frustrating and all of the answers I see do not work.
Hi,
Opened my windows live mail account today as normal. Everything as it should be but all my contact have disappeared. Any ideas?
Hi I have live mail 2011 installed on windows serwer 2008. Everything have worked fine till today.
I can see emails list, emails could be downloaded from the serwer, but when i try to open any email (old ones too) I have error "Can't open message. try again" (or something like this - I have the pl version of the system).
This happens on every accounts.
I have tried to fix this error using "repair" option in the program deinstallation options, but without any positive effect.
Could somebody help with this issue?
I'm not sure if I'm on the correct page or not.
New computer ; Windows 8 ; IE 10 ; "Email with Windows Live" .
Situation :
I can send a webpage link to my Hotmail mailbox.
It is not highlighted or underlined and therefore cannot be opened by me or any recipient I send it to.
I did check to make sure Windows Live Mail is not corrupted
If this isn't the correct page for this inquiry, please direct me.
Thanks.

When friends try to send me an email they get the following message

I stopped using Windows Live mail for my business as I have 10,000 contacts and when I start typing an email into the TO field , it took forever to find a match, I think is searches on Live to find a match and this is not workable for me, very disappointing.
Is there a way to make it search the local address book only, like the OLD WAB in Outlook express.
I have found a new email client that has met most of my expectations www.emclient.com and I have reserved Windows Live email client for my Hotmail, gmail and other personal accounts, just not suitable for business beacuse of the address book, which slows me down.
Sometimes I type an email address and it puts in another address changing who I am sending to, this is very annoying
Otherwise the interface is nice.
