Version: Windows Live Mail 2011

OS: Windows 7 32-bit

Thank you for finding the time to read this inquiry.

I have been experiencing problems in Windows Live Mail 2011(WLM) after we shared the same email account in different Windows user account wherein it keeps asking the user for the email account password every time they open it for the first time after switching from another Windows user account.

To explain further, we setup the same email account in WLM to a different Windows user account (common user account) in the same PC so that the users won't have to use the Windows user account of the original owner of the email just so that they could read the email (since the original owner shares his email to other users within the group). 

We made a common Windows account, setup Windows Live Mail with the same information as the original owner of the email, and then we changed the email storage folder of the common user account email  to the same location where the original email is located (it was redirected to the Profile of the original owner of the email).

With that setup, they are now sharing the same email within the same PC but with different Windows user account but the problem is every time they close WLM and switch to the other Windows user account, WLM seems to ask for the password of the email again. Clicking on remember password does not seem to work.

Also, before we could shared the same storage folder to the common user account, we had to share the whole account folder of the original owner under Users in Drive C: because of UAC.

Does anyone have an idea why this is happening?

Thank you very much!
