Windows 7, Windows Essentials. Email received with multiple photos attached. Clicked on "view slide show". Redirects to "Mail attachment - Photo Gallery", but only one of the photos is redirected.
Without the support to high DPI, the mail, photo gallery and other apps display quite blur on surface pro 2.
Does microsoft have plan to update the windows essentials bundle to support high DPI?
Thanks
Dear All,
Windows Live mail 2011 (on Windows 7 Ultimate) was working fine for several years and all of a sudden, a few days ago, it just stopped sending and receiving e-mails with no error code. I click send and receive and nothing happens, as if I never pressed it. When I close the program, wlmail is still present in the processes windows in Task manager and I have to end it manually. I finally uninstall it and install Live mail 2012. Everything works fine for two days and I get the same problem all over again. I go to add/remove programs in order to repair or uninstall Windows Essentials but nothing happens. When I click it again I get the message "Please wait until the current problem is finished uninstalling or being repaired".
I would try to uninstall it manually from a command line but I am afraid that there is another problem that I cannot figure out, because crashing after two days does not make any sense.
Could you please give me any advice on what to do because I now have to use other mail clients which I don't really like doing.
Thank you in advance.
When I install windows essentials pack the installer does 99% of it and then gives me this error 0x80040607 and D3DX10_42. My computer is only two months old with windows 8. Can someone please help!
Thanks
How do I get the typing of an event to go to the second line in Windows Essentials calendar?

I will do my best to simplify this problem:
First - I have a desktop which is running Windows 8.1. I run it in desk top mode.
I have Skype installed and have had a Skype account for several years. I also have Windows Essentials installed. The most important part of WE, for me, is Windows Live Mail. It is a very useful mail program.
Now - the problem: Every day when I boot up my PC, I get a message from Windows Live Messenger stating that a new version is available. This message seemingly came from no-where starting about a month ago. I'm given two choices, I can upgrade or not upgrade. If I say okay to the upgrade the program returns a message which says there is already a newer version installed. I assume that this is referring to "Skype". Since it seems to be discouraging me, I select "Cancel".
Of course the next time I reboot the same upgrade message is present. It is quite annoying. I really just want the annoying message to go away, but I'm not sure what is driving it. The thing that I don't want to do is to disrupt my Windows Live Mail program with all my e-mails and contacts.
Suggestions???
I bought a new Gateway Laptop with Win 8 installed in May 2013. Shortly thereafter, I updated to Win 8.1. I didn't like the Mail program provided. (Outlook)
I installed Windows Essentials after I updated to 8.1, several times and uninstalled it/re-installed it, because the email program wasn't working.
2 days ago I re-installed Windows Live Mail. It worked fine for the first day, a little worse the second day and today, the third day, it is totally inconsistent. I keep receiving pop-ups with messages: Cannot connect to server, Failure because of memory problems, Cannot receive/send email because of server problems, memory problems, etc., etc. The pop-ups keep flashing on the screen so fast I can't even click ok to get out of the program.
Is there an update to Windows Live Mail 2012 that can solve my problem? I have run diagnostics on my computer, there are no memory problems, just problems with Windows Live Mail 2012.
I would like to use it, but I'm really thinking of moving to Thunderbird. I need a stable and consistent Email program without installing and re-installing and re configuring every 2 days.
Looking for suggestions.
Thank you very much.
I have gone through all that I could find related to this issue but nothing has worked for me. I have used Windows Live mail for several years but this latest update caused Mail and Movie Maker to be removed. Now when I try to install either via the web or offline installer I get the error spelled out in the title.
I cannot enable Firewall due to group policy settings. Any way around this?
I just want mail and movie maker back.
Someone please help.
With the installation of the latest update on March 6, 2014, to Windows Live Mail Version 2012 (Build 16.4.3522.0110)) on my Sony Windows 7/64bit computer, the calendar associated with Live Mail has stopped updating my new calendar entries to calendar.live.com. Thus the new entries do not show up on my other computers (both Windows 7/64 bit) or on the web version of the calendar, although they remain on the Sony Windows 7 computer. Conversely, items posted on the other computers or on my Apple mobile devices do post to the web version of the calendar, where they are picked up and update the calendar on the Sony Windows 7 computer (resulting in some double entries). That is, the Sony Windows 7 computer can read and update from calendar.live.com but can not write to or update calendar.live.com. Prior to the March 6 update to Live Mail, the calendar worked flawlessly across all devices.
I have use the Control Panel/Programs/Repair function to repair Window Essentials 2012 and have used the Fix It solution at:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2842520
Prior to March 6 I had happily used Windows Live Mail and its predecessors for years without serious incident. My search of the Microsoft Support and Community sites seems to indicate that problems with Calendar updating have been around for years, with no endorsed solution from Microsoft.
Help! How do I fix this problem?
Thanks, Ron
