Question asked on Sep 24, 2016

Hi,

My computer was just updated to the aniversary 1607 version.
Windows essentials mail opens ok, however if I try and open some messages, I receive an error saying "Windows Live Mail has stopped working"

I have not being able to determine what qualifies an email as problematic, some are large, 2.4Meg, others with no attachments.

I found a simular report on here, the suggestion was to go into add/remove programs, select Windows Essentials, and get it to repair itself - all done successfully, but it didn't fix my fault.

I was going to try and uninstall some of the latest updates, but have had no sucecess uninstalling - I think the function must be inhibited.

Paul
