Hi
I use Windows Live Mail 2012 on a Windows 10 machine upgraded from Windows 7. It was working perfectly fine when i received an email from *** Email address is removed for privacy *** telling me that i had to run an update otherwise it wouldn't work in a few weeks time.
I ran the upgrade (choosing the repair button) but it has broken Windows Live Mail. When i hit Send/Receive, the non-hotmail accounts executed fine, but the hotmail accounts took about 15 minutes stuck on "Downloading 0 of 0 headers" ie there was no new mail to download. Having finally executed these processes it got to the Calendar synch and crashed. Each time i subsequently open Windows Live Mail it crashes again. Also, all the Calendar events have disappeared although they are visible if i logon via the outlook website, they are just missing in Windows Live Mail 2012.
I made some enquiries with Chat Technicians but they wanted to remotely logon to my computer! Not sure what world they live in with regard to security. Failing this the only solution is to uninstall and reinstall Windows Live Mail 2012, but surely this will, at best, put me back to where i was with no update to prevent it failing in a few weeks time.
How do i proceed please?
thanks ...
I have 6 email accounts that I run within Windows Live Mail. All are working OK apart from my outlook.com account which gives the above error code. This started this morning.
I have tried the fixit which did not work, the regedit fix does not seem to apply to Windows 10 which I am using. I finally tried deleting the account and when I try to reinstall it within Windows Live Mail I still get the same error code when it tries to synchronise the account.
I also am having the same issue attempting to edit pictures in Dropbox using Photo Gallery. Until recently you could select a photo anywhere on your computer including Dropbox then double click to open with Photo Gallery or Right Click and select Open With Photo Gallery. Once done in the upper left corner of the screen you would select Edit and Manage Photos and the folder containing the selected photo would open in Photo Gallery displaying all photos in that folder including the selected photo and nothing more. I did this daily and had no trouble accessing, displaying, or editing photos stored in Dropbox using Photo Gallery.
Now if I select a photo stored in Dropbox, double click or right click and Open with Photo Gallery, every picture on my computer displays and is totally unrelated to what I selected, has no organizational method to search and find the selected picture and even includes jpeg documents I have scanned.
There is a list of folders on the left side and Dropbox is not an option to select and it is unclear to me exactly where Photo Gallery is getting this list from, because everything on my computer is saved in Dropbox and everything I work on whether it be a document, jpeg scan, photo, music or anything else is done in Dropbox.
This is completely unacceptable as I have thousands of pictures on my computer and it is important to be able to track the location where photos are stored like in a directory, access them and edit.
This was a simple process until I upgraded to Windows 10 Pro. I do not know if it is related to this upgrade but this should be a simple task for a MS Operating System to handle as it did before for many years without any problems at all.
If anyone has an idea or explanation how to remedy this I would be greatly appreciative for your assistance.
Thank you
Since upgrading Windows Live Mail from 2011 to 2012 and then downloading the new upgrade, my sent emails are not displaying properly. Under the 'To' heading the sender name (my name) appears instead of the recipient's name so I cannot see who the email was sent to.
All of a sudden, I have been getting multiple event entries on my calendar. The events are all identical scheduled for Sunday from 8AM.
