Yes I have checked the remember password button in my account settings.  But I get a pop up window for my msn account in windows live email on windows 7.   It might remember it for a while, but I close email and reopen it and it will ask me for my account password.  Sometimes it remembers it.  I chatted with the answer desk and they couldn't get it to repeat the problem.  It didn't do it when they took over the computer.  Note that I don't have this problem with my Hotmail account in windows live, or my sbcglobal account.  I was also having a problem with Onedrive forgetting it for a while.
