• files from Windows live mail

  I use Windows 7 and Windows Live Mail - recently I seem to tom lost the folder "all emails.  I made a new folder with that title, but emails are not automatically put in it that I found very useful to find emails that I could not trace in the main files.

  Geoff Richards

  I think that we have already explained that WLM does not automatically create a folder of "all emails.  It must have been created by a user.  You can create an and I think that we have already explained how.

  It is possible that you have inadvertently moved this file inside another.  Investigate each case.  Looking for a small arrow to the left of the folder name.  If this arrow is there, this means that there is a file in this folder.  In fact, they can make their nest at several levels.

• Cannot open PDF files in Windows Live Mail.

  I recently got a new computer running Windows 7.  I have Windows Live Mail and have tried to open the 'pdf' files attached to e-mails.  When I try to open them I get an error message.  I downloaded the file in the file management section for Adobe and Adobe.  How to open a PDF file without first having to save it on my computer?

  HURT SO BAD!  I had the same problem - I tried the security options in Internet Explorer and Adobe, also the download of unassociate.exe that was put in place for users of Vista and used on the extension pdf without result.  IF YOU USE IT ON THE PDF AND PDFXML extensions, then open Adobe reader and click Help, repair drive installation it works!

  Obviously, you cannot run your life by saving just to open attachments... Adobe has no answers on their site and find the file unassoc.exe on this Microsoft forum was the closest, I arrived to find an answer. When I tried the process a second time, I saw the PDFXML extension just below the PDF extension and took a shot at it.

  Someone at Microsoft needs this fix to make accessible to all the users of Windows 7. I spent 3 hours on the phone with HP support, he tried the unassoc.exe and it did not work for him. I contact them to let them know about this - they put me on the phone with a Manager and he told me they had literally hundreds of phone calls about this.

• Windows Live Mail Contacts problem...

  Hello...

  I could use some help.  : )

  Background: I installed Windows Live Mail on your laptop Windows 8.1.  Apparently somewhere during the process of adding additional e-mail accounts - Gmail account more specifically he asked do you want to include contacts.  I said yes!  Error!  It resulted in each contact showing 2 times on my Windows 7 laptop running Windows Live.

  Question: I have now each contact in my list of contacts twice.  It says 'address book' under the name and can be edited.  The other has no indication, and my best guess is that it's the Gmail account contact.

  That's what I see on laptops respective...  1.) 8.1 portable Windows - people shows only 1 time contact.  (2.) for laptop Windows 7 - Windows Live shows each 2 times contact

  Tried: 1) software, Windows Live has two contacts.  2.), remove all contacts in Gmail, Windows Live still has these two contacts.

  I'm at a lost how do I solve this problem...  Thanks for your help.

  I do not believe that your explanation of how this happened is quite accurate. If you add an e-mail account in Windows Live Mail, there is no question of whether contacts should be included - email and contacts are completely separate processes in Windows Live Mail.

  If you see contacts in Windows Live Mail, which are not ' of address book ", then you must be signed in to Windows Live Mail with a Microsoft Account (which could be your Gmail account). If this account is connected to Google, Google contacts will eventually synchronize with Windows Live Mail. You cannot change these contacts in Windows Live Mail.

  To break the connection, click on the rightmost button on the home Ribbon tab and select view account information. Sign in to your account again, and then click permissions.
   
  1. click on services and applications Manage.
  2. click on Edit in the connected Google service you want to remove from your account
  3. click on remove this connection completely.
  4. click on Remove.

  Back in Windows Live Mail. Click again on the button to the right and select sign out of Windows Live Mail. Wait a few minutes, and then click New and connect. Check your list of contacts.

• I can't find how to create a group list rom installed contacts window Live Mail contact.

  Recently installed Live mail and as far as I can see there is no place to create a group list to send more than one person at5 e-mail once.  I couldn't transfer my list of Outlook 2002 Group to live mail;

  Given that you wrote "recently installed Live mail...". ", I assume you meant Windows Live Mail 2011 .

  If not, please ignore the following.

  If Yes...
  Open WLM 2011 > at the bottom left, click the icon that represents Contacts

  

  at the top, click on category (category = group) > enter the name of the Group > select contacts who will be in the Group > click Save when done.

  

• How are updates to Windows Live Mail generated?

  I downloaded Windows Live Mail shortly before I upgraded to Windows 7.  This has worked like a charm and copied on everything from Windows Mail.
  Now I wonder how updates are handled.   My Windows Update is configured to do the Windows updates only.  If there is an update for Windows Live Mail, I will get it with this setting?
  I don't want to change my settings, if I can avoid it because I not updated from Microsoft products, I do not use.
  Thank you.

  If you are using Win7, Microsoft Update is your source of default update. As long as give me updates in the same way I receive important recommended updates is enabled, you will be offered updates for Windows Live Mail Security and others installed Windows Live applications.

  You may not have a Skype account but echo is Skype and Skype can only be deleted.  I saw several times and I'm starting to wonder if Microsoft doesn't create Skype accounts for all its accounts of Microsoft. AFAIK, you can't remove echo from anywhere but Skype.  I learned to live with it
