Windows Live Mail 2012 from Windows 7 to Windows 10

Current emails already in Windows 7 Live Mail 2012 version will be still present once I have upgraded to Windows 10? Are there "traps" that I need to look out for?

Thank you

WLM also works to win 10.  Just to be sure that I copy the WLM file to another location just in case.

The folder is located here C:\user\your user\app data (can be hidden below live \local\Microsoft\Windows mail\your e-mail account (there may be several if you have several configured email addresses))

If data app are not visible, you can go to control panel > folder options > show hidden files & folders.

    Have windows live mail 2012.

    Impossible to delete some messages. Some are in the same domain. Should be spam. The settings have not been changed.

    To solve the problem, I signed in Microsoft Outlook.com and managed to delete messages as well as notify Microsoft about junk e-mail. So far, when you use Windows live mail, I received an email from the same source as before and was able to remove it.

  • Windows Live Mail 2012 with Windows 7

    As some know, on or around 11 last December, Microsoft gave notice that:

    1. Windows Live Essentials 2011 is no longer supported.

    2. If you want to continue using Windows Live Mail 2012 to send/receive emails, it is necessary to install the latest update (as provided).

    My laptop and netbook running both Windows Live Mail 2011 simultaneously using two accounts: Hotmail email and Virgin.  Therefore, to be a good citizen I installed Windows Live Essentials 2012 on the machines and the last update (see above).  Maybe first of all I should have uninstalled WLE 2011 but I assumed WLE 2012 would "crush".  For sure WLE 2011 has disappeared from the list of programs.  To start 2012 WLM worked, but soon the following progression that has happened for the Hotmail account:

    1. deleted messages has duplicated.

    2 sending messages takes seconds to appear in the file sent (via Outbox) rather than be instantaneous.

    3 envoys arrested in sent folder (however shown as sent in Outlook on the MSN Web site) and kept a copy in the sent folder remains checked.

    4 Hotmail account ceased to receive messages.

    On behalf of Virgin continues to carry out overall as it should.

    I've restored my WLM 2011 netbook, which took over all of the missing e-mails.  I'll do the same thing with my laptop.

    Now, here's the thing.  My wife's cell phone came with WLM 2012 on the first day.  Of course, I applied the last update as a recommended MSN.  The same progression of deterioration is currently at above the stage 3 on his machine so his Virgin account is fine.  Is it possible that the "last updated" is the problem?  Or something to do with none that I changed the settings.

    More soon help and advice will be greatly appreciated.

    Well, you should.  Before, I had tried to fix "Essentials" and it did not work.  I tried again a few minutes ago and this time it worked.  Yee Ha! Merry Christmas.

  • Windows Live Mail 2012 request username and password

    Windows Live Mail 2012 never asked me user and password because it has been installed. After trying to send a photo from my Canon camera software after I had downloaded the images from the camera, asked for the username and password. Joined those from Microsoft. E-mail does not; It is in the Outbox. Choose the icon on desktop for Windows Live Mail 2012 and all contacts are gone. Email arrives, but can not send email. Need problem solved.

    If you try to use the Windows function send to > message recipient to send an image, you must be logged into Windows Live Mail. There is a bug in the program.

    When you are connected, you will see the contacts that belong to the Microsoft Account sign in to help. These are the same ones you see at http://people.live.com so sign here with the same account. If you are not signed in, you will see the default contacts list. There is no link between these different sets of contacts.

    To avoid the bug, start by opening a message compose window in Windows Live Mail (for example by pressing Ctrl-N), and then apply a Insert > single photo to insert an image or images in the body of your message, or attach a file to send in the form of attachments.

    If you are not able to send messages, please remove any message not sent from the Outbox, then compose a simple message, try again with a single topic and send it to yourself. Send the error message in your response.

    It is relatively simple as you use and that you want to use WLM.

    You will need to copy a folder from where it is (the old installation) to another place where you know it will be (for example on your desktop)

    The folder is c:\users\your user name\app data (if it is not there, see the note below) \local\microsoft\

    At that point you will see a folder named oddly enough "windows live mail" copy on your desktop

    If you don't see the app data because it is invisible atm.  To make it visible, you need to go to your control panel > folder options > view > change to hidden folders (see figure)

    Once you have mail backed up on your desktop (or where ever) drag the folder from the desktop to the location for the new WLM (once again we C;-... just like above).  Just make sure that WLM does not run in time.  What wont be imported, it of passwords and rules.

    Accounts and data should now be in the new WLM when you open it.

    I recently had 10 deleted Windows (it was causing all kinds of mischief) and have a lot of trouble with the store because they did not reinstall many of my files.

    How to set up a group in windows Live mail 2012

    To add to the Canadian Council of technology, there is another way in 2012.

    Open a new message window and add all recipients in the field you choose (to, CC or BCC). If other than the field to, put your own address in there.

    Now click on file | Save | Save as file and save it to the desktop. An envelope icon will be there now and when you want to send a message, click on that and your messages of the Group popup window will be ready to go.

  • Can't send or receive messages Windows Live Mail 2012 / Cogeco account

    Until yesterday, my Cogeco email account worked well within Windows Live Mail 2012. Bought a laptop and I tried to add this account to it.

    The following message appears when I try to send/receive:

    and then the following error message appears:

    Can't send or receive messages on behalf of Cogeco (wliber). An incorrect password was entered. The next time that you send or receive messages, you will be asked to enter your user name and password for this account.

    Server error: 0x800CCC90

    Server response:-ERR [AUTH] failed authentication

    Server: 'pop.cogeco.ca '.

    Windows Live Mail error ID: 0x800CCC92

    Protocol: POP3

    Port: 110

    Secure (SSL): No.

    Went in properties and changed the password to what I think it should be and also changed the secure (SSL) to Yes for incoming and outgoing messages, but still can not send/receive, keep coming back that my password is incorrect.

    Tried to create another account of cogeco, but who also do not send/receive.

  • Cannot open an attachment in Windows Live Mail 2012.

    I can't open attachments in Windows Live Mail 2012.  On right click on it I just get the option 'open', not 'open with '.  I think that it may be trying to use a path or a program, but don't know how to change it.  Any suggestions?

    It's weird, the Mail app does not keep a separate list of file associations, it should just pull some Manager by default is the type of file by name.  I agree with your idea, kill it and reinstall it and determine if it starts to behave properly.

    Original title: windows live mail 2012

    How to upgrade to Windows Live Mail 2012 (Windows 8 machine)?  My Windows 7 computer is Windows Live Mail 2011, which is much better than 2012.  Is there a Windows Live Mail 2013 - 2014 that I can upgrade to?  I hope the update will have more options to setup email (ie: showing "sender" before "subject".)

    No, unfortunately Windows Live 2012 is the latest version of Windows Live.
