  • After saving the emails from windows live mail, why not open them on my computer as the file extension is wlmail.fol?

    After saving the emails from windows live mail, why not open them on my computer as the file extension is wlmail.fol?

    wlmail.fol is a tiny text giving the name of the folder. The exported messages will have filenames like 00D13E83 - 000025DF.eml. If you don't see all of the files like this, your export probably did not work properly.

    For a successful export, follow these directions:

    1. Set Windows Live Mail to work offline before starting.
    2. Create a temporary folder on your desktop * to contain the exported messages.
    3. In the Export Wizard, select the temporary folder, and then select all the folders.* *
    4. When it is complete, check that the number of files in each folder to the temporary folder is one more than the number of messages in the corresponding folder of WLMail.
    5. Copy the temporary file to its final destination.
      If you use a reader not NTFS to do this, you will see a warning that certain file properties will not be copied files. This can be ignored.

    * Windows Live Mail do not work with files that are not on a local drive, as opposed to an external or network drive. This is avoided by using the office as a temporary folder location. 
    * If you want to export the files sampled only, select each of them containing messages. Subfolders are not automatically selected by default.

  • cannot print the document from Windows Mail, get a script error

    When I try to print an electronic document of Windows Mail, I get the following error message:

    -An error has occurred in the script on this page

    -Line: 2115

    -Char: 1

    -Error: unexpected call to method or property access

    -Code: 0

    -url://ieframe.dll/preview.js

    Hello

    1. are you able to print other documents?

    2 have had any changes made to your computer before this problem?

    Try the reinstatement of OLE controls to correct the above error.

    Method 1: register the OLE control
    To do:
    1. click Start and type regsvr32 ole32.dll in the search field.
    2. press enter.

    Check if this helps you to print from Windows Live Mail. This usually solves the problem. If you are still having the same problem, follow the remaining steps.

    Method 2: disable the script debugger

    1. in the Tools menu, click Internet Options.
    2. on the Advanced tab , click on to clear display of each box script error notification, and then click OK.

    Method 3: Verify that Active Scripting, ActiveX, and Java are not blocked by Internet Explorer

    Active scripting, ActiveX, and Java are all involved in shaping the way information displays on a Web page. If they are blocked on your computer, it can disrupt the display of the Web page. Reset the Internet Explorer security settings to ensure that they are not blocked. To do this, follow these steps:

    1. start Internet Explorer.
    2. on the Tools menu, click on Internet Options.
    3. in the Internet Options dialog box, click the Security tab.
    4. click on default.
    5. click on OK.

    Note: ActiveX controls and Java programs are disabled in the high security level in Internet Explorer.

    Try to open a Web page where you previously received a script error. If you do not receive the error, the problem is resolved. If the problem persists, go to method 4.

    Method 4: remove all temporary files related to Internet

    1. start Internet Explorer.
    2. in the Tools menu, click Internet Options.
    3. click on the general tab.
    4. under browsing history, click deleteand when you are prompted, click Yes to confirm.
    5. in the dialog box delete browsing history , under Temporary Internet files, click delete filesand when you are prompted, click Yes to confirm.
    6. under Cookies, click delete Cookies, and when you are prompted, click Yes to confirm.
    7. under history, click delete history, and when you are prompted, click Yes to confirm.
    8. click on closeand then click OK to close the Internet Options dialog box.

    If all goes well, you should be able to print now.

  • Help to remove the account from Microsoft

    Hello world

    I want to remove my account from Microsoft (https://account.live.com/closeaccount.aspx), but when I'm about to move forward, there is a great message to say out loud "make sure that * address email is removed from the privacy * is ready to close ', and it has info on how to set up automatic responses, etc...  The problem is... I don't want to delete my gmail account, I want to remove my account from Microsoft.  I signed up just to use the synchronization of OneNote, which I changed since then and I want to clean up after myself.

    Question: If I have my Microsoft account deleting, I delete my gmail account or only an association on behalf of gmail?

    I realize this is really basic, but I was unable to string together a search phrase Google/Bing which lead me to a response.

    Thanks in advance.  :-)

    Hello

    Thanks for posting your question on the Microsoft community.

    I would like to know some information about the problem so that we can help you better.

    What is the reason for the deletion of your Microsoft account?

    Thank you for details on the issue.

    Deleting an account Microsoft does not close the account that are associated with him. It only removes its association. Thus, your "Gmail" account will remain open.

    You can refer to this article:
    How can I close my account?

  • Cannot send mail from Windows 8 Mail app

    Installed Win8 pro (upgrade to win7 x 64) a few days before and set up the Mail app to work with all my email accounts. I have several: a gmail, an outlook.com and three or four regular POP3/IMAP on mine, hosted domains. The problem is I can't send e-mails from any IMAP accounts or the account of outlook.com. I receive emails OK but sending does not work - they end just the Outbox and then nothing happens.

    This doesn't seem to be a problem of parameters - I use the same settings as in my Outlook 2010 client and I chatted with hosting support (they confirmed my settings, each of them). However, I noticed that when manually "sync" I got error messages saying temporary get accounts are 'not available' (top right). This is true for my POP3/IMAP accounts as well as the outlook.com account. May be a temporary problem, however, since I have no problem receiving e-mails.
    I used a downloadable apps Win8 mechanic I found here at Microsoft Answers, but he found nothing. And nobody else seems to have this problem (neither here, nor on other forums). What could be wrong?
    Any suggestions on how to deal with this issue would be greatly appreciated. I was hoping to invest in a Windows Phone 8 later, but I would like to first of all of course e-mail work.

    Please wait for the update to be available in different markets. The 16.4.4406.1205 version is the most recent with the fix.

    Added October 17, 2013

    8.1 Windows upgrade, Mail App will support invalid server certificates (not match error with CN, untrusted root and expiry of the certificate). This means that the user can temporarily reject the certificate error when connecting to the IMAP/EAS server using the SSL connection. The setting is available jet account-> Settings.

  • Cannot add new account to Windows Live Mail

    Hello. I am trying to add a new e-mail in Windows Live Mail account. I'm in the screens to add, after trying both to let the program add the servers and add them manually. He seems to accept the account I receive the message successfully added, but then he adds in fact, i.e. it never appears on the homescreen by e-mail. I tried multiple accounts several times. Then, I removed the version preloaded on my WIndows 7 PC and reloaded from the Web site. Same result. Maybe I'm missing another file that is needed to make this work (although it would be weird). I also used the repair tool that appears when you choose to remove. I'm out of ideas. Anyone have any idea?

    It would be useful to know your OS (Xp, Vista, Win 7) current antimalware/antivirus program (Avast, Microsoft Security Essentials, Norton, McAfee or other) and the exact name of this malware based on what is shown in the pop-up windows that was detected.
