Welcome to Microsoft Community forum and I am here to assist you in opening your emails on Windows Live Mail. Please be informed that the error message you have receive is a generic one which means that there is not enough memory that is why you cannot open the email. To troubleshoot this, follow the steps below:
1. Restart the computer (this is to ensure that Live Mail is fully shut down, and that none of it's components are in use when the computer starts)
2. Click Start, type CMD but do not press enter
3. You will see cmd.exe in the search results, right click on it and select Run as Administrator - type your admin password if asked, and if UAC pops up asking premission, allow it
4. You should now see the command prompt, with the following displayed:
Microsoft Windows [Version 6.1.7600]
Copyright (c) 2009 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
C:Windowssystem32>
5. Copy the following (Ctrl+C)
esentutl.exe -d "%userprofile%AppDataLocalMicrosoftWindows Live MailMail.MSMessageStore"
Note: the "" are necessary
6. Right click in the command prompt Window, and select Paste, so you now see the following:
Microsoft Windows [Version 6.1.7600]
Copyright (c) 2009 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
C:Windowssystem32>esentutl.exe -d "%userprofile%AppDataLocalMicrosoftWindows Live MailMail.MSMessageStore"
7. Press Enter. esentutl will now defragment the Live Mail database file
8. Once done, you can close the command prompt, and restart the PC again
Tried this fix and now Live Mail will not open at all. I cannot access my emails.
Long winded error message, that you cannot copy and paste which is a dumb idea, that says in effect another program is access the mail file.
I'm running Windows 10.

So, anyone have any ideas what to do when Windows Live Mail will not open to anything except what is supposed to be the Send/Receive Progress box -- AND it never times out, never gives up, just sits that way for hours
No way to even try any of the suggestions in any of the several threads about WLM having messages stuck in the outbox because there is no way to get to the outbox, no way to choose Work Offline, no way to do ANYTHING related to Windows Live Mail at all. Even the "Stop" button isn't available.
I am trying to make a movie from a couple .mp4 videos from my Windows phone. Transfered files to Dell desktop: Windows 7, Window Essentials with Movie Maker 12, Nvidia GeForce Go 7900 GS graphics, 4 Gigs Ram at 2.0Htz.
The program works well through the editing cycle and saving "project" files .wlmp. Stupid thing shuts down everytime I try to "save" the movie - no matter the resolution. The error is:

I have reinstalled Windows Essential and Navidia drivers.
I remember having this problem and wasting a bunch of time the last time I tried to use Movie Maker - but it seems it would save one out of 3-4 tries. Or, I might have given up and used some "freeware", but it was much bigger than this job. The video is only 1min29sec.
Help! Thanks...
The send/receive progress box shows the current (only) task as send 2 message(s) using '[my default mail account]' and a status of 0 of 1 tasks have completed successfully
The Stop button is greyed out, so I can't even tell it to give up -- and it never times out even if I wait much longer than the maximum time configured for any connection.
There are dozens of threads here about Windows Live Mail with messages stuck in the outbox -- but none of the 'solutions' are even anything that can be attempted in this case because there is no way to get to any of the controls for Windows Live Mail - what you see in the picture above is ALL there is.
