Not all WLM messages are present in the "store folder" :think: My windows live mail messages are not entirely present in the "store folder" located at: C:\Users\[user profile name]\appdata\local\Microsoft\Windows Live Mail\. Some, but very few, are there, not all. I tried uninstalling and...

:confused: I am updating this post again. I have found a way to remove this duplicate user profile folder from the navigation pane by un-checking the "show all folders" option. However, this also takes out other folders that I would like to leave in, such as Control Panel. This is not a fix...

:confused: I would like to update my post, if I might. I have just changed my Microsoft account password, and I tried 'switching' to my Local account and then going back to my Microsoft account. This solved the problem for all of about 2 minutes, then it reverted right back to my full name as...

:confused: I have been trying to rid myself of this problem off and on since last year some time. Last year I was having problems after I installed the free Win 8.1 upgrade. I don't remember exactly each problem, but the major problem, I think, was not being able to log in with my Microsoft...

Sorry, I have Windows Essentials 2012/windows live mail client. The information submitted is: Windows Live Mail 2011 for Your E-Mail Account Applies to: Office 365 for professionals and small businesses, Office 365 for enterprises, Microsoft Exchange, Live@edu This doesn't apply.

I have just purchased Acronis True Image 2015, a backup service software, and to receive email notification alerts about ongoing backups I need windows live mail information I can't find. I am posting, with this thread, 3 .png images to show the way it is with this problem. The first image...

:shock: OK, this is really bad advice. If there is a way to change the icon without using the registry, I don't think this is it. I am attaching a couple of images to show that the Word 2010 icon is listed in Control Panel>Default Programs>Set your default programs>Word (desktop), and also an...

:shock: In Default Programs>Set your default programs, the only program associated with Microsoft Word is something called Word (desktop), and the icon is a Word 2010 icon. I searched online for help and have tried everything I found, including the registry change, but when I tried to name the...

reply: Whichever account I log into (my local account or my Microsoft account) the 'other' user profile is used, and I get the same empty desktop, taskbar, and start screen. I purchased my computer in November 2012, and I changed my Microsoft email address (sign in) in August of 2013. I don't...

replying to advice: I got rid of the new account, but now I have another problem. The 'other' user profile folder in C:\Users, now thinks it is "the boss". I don't need two user profile folders, and I do not want to use this new one, because it doesn't have all my 'stuff' in it, my old local...

I installed the Windows 8.1 a number of months ago. Since then (I'm thinking, now), I could not sign in with my microsoft account and neither could I get an energy report using the admin command prompt, and was also having problems with the One Drive sync. I never thought these were related...

To xunile: :D Thanks a lot, that did it.

:( I get this RunDLL (Not Responding) message box every time I restart the computer. The rest of the message says "There was a problem starting C:\Users\SHERRY\AppData\Local\Conduit\BackgroundContainer\Background Container.dll The specified module could not be found." I have included a snip...

:think: I've got a couple of problems one of which was a problem before the free upgrade to Win 8.1. First problem: When I try to get an energy report by using the admin. command prompt I get a message saying: "An unexpected error condition has occurred. Unable to perform operation. You...

:sick: I have been using my win 8 computer for a few months without the log in screen. I did this by way of the netplwiz run command to the User Account dialogue box. I thought I would go back to using the log in screen, but when I got to the User Account dialogue box, the check box for "must...

Upon being requested to enter a new password of 8 characters for my Outlook mailbox, my old password had 7, my windows live mail doesn't work. I should add that my windows live mail and my Outlook mail are the same email address. When I add my account, it puts up the "account being...

:think: I am the only user of my computer, therefore I cannot change my account to standard instead of administrator, and therefore, I am stuck with the log in screen every time I restart. I would like to disable the log in screen and maybe keep the lock screen, if possible. Is there a way...

solved system restore is not making restore points :) To start System Restore, open the Control Panel, then click on the heading "System and Security", then click on the heading "Administrative Tools", then scroll to the entry titled "Services" and double click on that. Next scroll to the...

:( I initially started a File History backup 6 days ago and when I open File History from the control panel it still says "Files last copied on 'and the original date'. I have set a daily preference for backing up so shouldn't the date change each day? When I click on the "run now" link a...

Whoa! What are you talking about? "Zero Computer Savvy" here, but can follow detailed directions easily. I just pasted the prescribed path into admin. command prompt and clicked "Enter", nothing happened. It brought up original first line again, Windows System 32 or whatever.
