Need help with Windows Live Mail password

Microsoft support told me that the only way to get help with my last password is by e-mail or forums and I recorded many positions and got no response.  I gave them all of my personal info to my email account and no response. I called in and no response.  Should I give up on this account?  I got it for more than three years and many court and legal emails were sent there I need.  Please notify.

I guess that you have a Live account Windows that you do not manage to connect to for various reasons.  Can clarify you what the case, and you can specify that you forgot your password or your user name?

If you talk about this type of Forums (below) then they are very busy, but eventually you should get a response from Microsoft.  If the problem is that I'm guessing that this is so only Microsoft can fix the problem for you, posters not Microsoft, as we find in this Forum won't be able to do much for you other than to advice on a course of action to follow.

If I remember the way Microsoft handle such problems with the "lockout", it's that they contact you by E-mail (an address that you can still access) and either reset your password or clear the problem after having proved to their satisfaction that you are the owner of the blocked account.  The process is a lot easier if you have (in the setup) provided them with another email address, or installed (and remember) secret an answer to the Question.

Unfortunately, the whole process may fail and you may forever lose this account.  If that were the case, you should start now to try to get duplicates of important emails from the original sender.

  • Need help with Windows Live Movie Maker and DVD Maker

    I have worked with Windows Live Movie Maker to cut a continuous piece of video footage into separate clips (these are dance performances by dancers of different about 13)... then once they were divided into 13 clips separated, I then cut them at the beginning and at the end of each clip (performance) and then used legends at the beginning of each clip with name of the dancer.  I also added a title at the beginning of the film page, and I added at the end of the credits.  Then I clicked on save the movie and had to wait an hour or more... Finally, when this was done, I opened Windows DVD Maker and clicked on add items... went to my file and put my film recorded in the creation of DVD.  I used also changed the Menu template to that for shows (it is red and black and has lights and cameras as a staging.  I thought everything was going along fine until I played the disc engraved on my Smart TV DVD player.  For some reason when I click on the stages (or chapters) to see the performance under this button, it starts to play the dvd in a few seconds or a few minutes in some cases in the performance... I've lost countless blank DVDs not to mention hours and hours of time... and I'm so frustrated... I'm ready to SCREEEAAMMM!  Also some of the performances were not even under one of the buttons or frames... in other words you could not use the arrow keys to locate some of them to click it and find out.  Yet, when I went back and pressed the 'Play' button, I could fast forward through the entire movie and find performances that seem to be missing the scenes/buttons.  Any help or advice before I blow a bridge! ???

    ===============================================
    First of all a question... did you you save the project in a video such as format
    . WMV or. MP4? Or have you just of WLMP project folder?

    I suspect that DVD Maker is to see your movie in one file
    and he has no idea where are your scenes. More than likely it is
    creation of scenes on his own in arbitrary places.

    In order for DVD Maker correctly, identify individual scenes
    each stage must be registered as an individual video clip, then
    the collection of video clips can be imported and each of them must
    become an individual scene.  DVD Maker is supposed to accept
    up to 18 scenes.

    Just an experience you can import your new original
    video clips in DVD Maker and see if it works properly. If
    It does what you want... change and re-record your clips one video
    both will be the fix.

    Good luck...

    Hello

    You can download, install, and configure Windows Live Mail again or use Windows Mail, which is the default email program in Vista.

    How to set up Windows Mail.

    Contact your ISP (Internet Service Provider); They provide your broadband / dial connection.

    Ask them to:

    1. your username with them

    2. your password with them.

    3 incoming mail POP3 server.

    4. the outgoing mail SMTP server

    All the settings that you need to come from them, not Microsoft; and they are usually happy to help you set up your e-mail program.

    You can use this guide to set up Windows Mail:

    Need help with windows defender. all my files folders pictures everythiing disappeared and I find myself with this black screen and it is not all good: o)

    I don't know why vista windows no longer charge, or when the files and folders disappeared

    How Windows Defender is on this problem?

    Follow these steps to try to solve your problems of boot.

     

     

    Restore point:

    Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.

    Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...

    Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

     

    If restore work not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

    Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

    When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

    http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial148.html

    Link above shows what the process looks like and a manual, it load the repair options.

    NeoSmart containing the content of the Windows Vista DVD 'Recovery Centre', as we refer to him. It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.

    Read all the info on the website on how to create and use:

    http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

    ISO Burner:http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html

    It's a very good Vista startup repair disk.

    You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.

    It is NOT a disc of resettlement.

    And the 32-bit is what normally comes on a computer, unless 64-bit.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Data recovery:

    1. slave of your hard drive in another computer and read/save your data out there.

    2. put your Hard drive in a USB hard drive case, plug it into another computer and read/save from there.

    3 Alternatively, use Knoppix Live CD to recover data:

    http://www.Knopper.NET/Knoppix/index-en.html

    Download/save the file Knoppix Live CD ISO above.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm

    Download the Vista software from the link above.

    After installing above ISO burning software, right click on the Knoppix ISO file > copy the Image to a CD.

    Knoppix is not installed on your PC; use only the resources of your PC, RAM, graphics etc.

    Change the boot order in YOUR computer/laptop to the CD/DVD Drive 1st in the boot order.

    Plug a Flash Drive/Memory Stick, BOOT with the Live CD, and you should be able to read the hard drive.

    When the desktop loads, you will see at least two drive hard icons on the desktop (one for your hard drive) and one for the USB key.

    Click on the icons of hard drive to open and to understand which drive is which.

    Click the icon for the USB drive and click on "Actions > Change the read/write mode" so you can write to disk (it is read-only by default for security reasons).

    Now to find the files you want to back up, just drag and drop them on the USB. When you're done, shut down the system and remove the USB key.

    See you soon.

  • Having a problem with Windows Live Mail lock up shortly after the start.

    Having a problem with Windows Live Mail lock up shortly after the start. When I start the Task Manager to end the process, it sometimes freezes and the only way to solve the problem is to disconnect which forces the profile to close. Assuming a corrupted profile, I followed the instructions of Windows support to fix a corrupted profile and copied all the files except ntuser.*. When I try to paste them into the new user profile (all profiles are admins), I get the error message asking if I want to leave to proceed. When I click on continue, all THE files in the profile block "corrupt" to the new one, including ntuser.*, that I was not choosing. Why? If the files are rewritten empty? Tried 3 times, same result. Please notify.

    I think I found it! I went in the Windows Live Forum and found a thread that looked like my problem. He suggested going to msconfig and take off Live Mail list start. I couldn't find it on the list, but the top element was "" default EXE"something of an unknown manufacturer. I took it out of the startup list, and Live Mail works again! Thanks for your help!

  • Spam blocking: setting up a list of "allowed" senders of e-mail with Windows Live Mail?

    I have on the execution of ideas to put in place of the blocked domains and keywords blocked with Windows Live Mail.  These work well, but the spammers are constantly thinking up new things that I've not yet blocked.  So, I would like to put up a 'allowed' list of email addresses that I want to go to my box and everything else go to the junk e-mail folder.  I have several thousand "authorized" addresses, in a worksheet.  Someone knows a way to do this?

    One thing is certain, it's actually pretty easy.

    1. Click on the arrow under "Junk" in the toolbar, and then click Security Options:
          
    2. Use the 'Safe list' option only
          
    3. Add the people that you trust to the allow list in the top tab.

      Tip: you can automatically add your address book, so that anyone in your contacts is automatically secure without having to add them manually.  You can also automatically add anyone you send outgoing messages, so that their response is considered safe when they respond back.
