I received an email from Microsoft today with a link to a patch for WLM 2012 to enable it to continue operating after coming changes to email services. I installed the patch and now WLM doesn't work. Opens but won't operate. Debugging doesn't help, so just have to close.
I intend to uninstall WLM as suggested, but I want to see what's in my Storage folders, which I assume will be lost when I uninstall. They don't appear to be synchronised with Outlook, so must be stored locally.
The patch doesn't appear as an update, so I can't uninstall it or revert to a previous version. I guess I could just uninstall WLM and reinstall it (assuming it's still available to download).
Does anyone have any better suggestions please?
This is the Outlook Team's email.
