Hi, running Windows Mail under Vista SP2. A Windows update ran itself today. When I got the system back it went started Windows Mail (no input from me) and downloaded mail from my ISP - all by itself. On completion, I have my usual list of folders and the updated mail list displayed from my Inbox. Double clicking on any of these - newly downloaded and old mails - opens a window showing headers as expected BUT NO TEXT....
I haven't been using Windows Mail for a while because of an SMTP annoyance. When I have downloaded dealt with emails from my ISP up to and including last week, the full email - header and text has been displayable.
I restored Windows to its previous version and got the 'success' message which also says 'data not changed'. So it's still hiding all the text in my mail. Attachments - referred to in the Header of course - open fine. Just no text ... dating back years ... aaah well, dog's want walking now....
Any ideas? Thanks folks

I would like to have photos open when I click customers and suppliers send me pictures often and with the new computer pictures no longer open from the email
IT is just one more thing that makes windows 8 horrid and slow to use
Every time I open Live Mail after rebooting, I get the message that Live Mail is recovering the Database. Also, Although I have permanently deleted all deleted messages, their headings still appear in the summery frame, although the individual messages cannot be found. What is going on, and how do I clear it?
I am running Windows Live Mail 2011 under Windows 7

Hello, I'm trying to export messages from Windows Live Mail (using Win7) to another mail client. The problem is, every time I'm trying to export my archive with pretty sophisticated folders structure (i have 16000+mails, over 9GB), I end up with totally different folder structure.
Is there any way how I might be able to export emails and folders from Windows Live Mail with correct folder structure so my folders and their names stays exactly the same as they were in Windows Live Mail?? I mean same names, same folders, same subdirectories etc.
Thanks for help and best regards!
I do not want my Microsoft Account to appear on my new home PC. I looked up turning Off the Microsoft Account options on-line.
I tried to follow the instructions to change from a Microsoft account to a personal account (in Windows 8.1) but the on screen intrusions did not follow the same process that I experienced when trying to complete the change.
(BTW - Why would Microsoft complicate a system that used to work perfectly well in Windows XP with this new system that you seemingly get trapped inside and can't get out of - all I want every time I want to send an email is to go straight to Outlook!).
I find the Microsoft Mail account almost impossible to use and much prefer Outlook - but it keeps taking me to Microsoft Mail - Very annoying.
How do I turn off Microsoft Account for my home PC (Specifically, I do not want business emails being combined with my home email - I already get far too much of both!).
Thank you.
