My windows live mail has not been working for the last 2 days. It was working perfectly fine before that. I use 2 hotmail accounts both suffer from the same error. I have windows 8 64 bit.
I think I've made an error entering my email settings as I can receive emails but can't send them.
I wanted to check &, if necessary, ammend the settings but find that the only option when I click "Accounts" is tp add an email address and no option to ammend the existing one. I've tried adding the info again with the ammendment I want to try but it is still trying to send using the original settings.
Would be very grateful if someone can tell me how to access the account settings

If I click on a mailto: link in any browser I receive a message "could not perform this operation .... Mail Client is not properly installed". If then I click OK about 50 Windows of Internet Explorer open and it locks up. Restart fixes it.
I don't know when this started because I rarely click on a mailto: link in a browser.
Windows 7 x 32, IE10, Windows Live Mail Version 2011 (Build 15.4.3555.0308) (default), Thunderbird, Microsoft Security Essentials, Malwarebytes.
I have tried the following:
Reset Windows Live Mail to all defaults
Repaired Windows Live Mail
Set Thunderbird to default (still get the error)
Set Windows Live Mail to all defaults again
Reset Internet Explorer 10
Error code 530 says smtp server rejects my email user name. After two hours on the phone with
ATT tech support, they attribute problem to my mail settings. A diagnostic says the problem is
APP incompatibility. Everything was working until last Saturday.
Complete error message is as follows:
"The message could not be sent because the server rejected the sender's email address.
Sender's email address was . . . .
Server Error: 530
Server Response: 530 authentication required - for help go to . . .
Server: 'smtp.att.yahoo.com'
Windows Live Mail Error ID: Ox800CCC78

I was troubleshooting why my Windows Live Mail is not synching. The calendar update at the bottom right just keeping flashing back and forth.
I ran the registers for Windows 7 and the only one that did not load is the following:
REGSVR32 initpki.dll failed to load.
Is there a way to fix this?
Thanks,
Joanne
