LiveMail and Outlook not syncing

I received an 'Important Information About Your Email Service' email yesterday stating that 'In order to continue using WLM2012 ... you need to install the latest update published here ...'

I clicked the link and performed the update and now can't access my main Hotmail account via LiveMail.  I have deleted the Hotmail account from LiveMail and restarted my computer and tried to re Add the email account however when adding the account it just loads the folders but doesn't sync any of the actual emails or let me send or receive emails from the newly added account.

As an alternative I have tried importing all of my email accounts usually accessed via LiveMail into Outlook, but Outlook keeps telling me that LiveMail is still running and needs to be closed to perform this action - yet I have completely shut down LiveMail, removed it from the start menu and restarted my computer but Outlook still says LiveMail is open?

Prior to this LiveMail update and the installation of Windows 10 yesterday my email was operating perfectly.
