  1. Attempting to create folders in Windows Mail


    I have no + sign to create more folders. I've read prev threads- all have the same problem thread now locked, few of them are helped by instructions. WHY is W10 such a mess? There really are so many problems. One after another. Most of us don't want to bcome techs...... we just want to use this tool that we've purchased. No wonder there's a slow take up. W7 was brilliant in so many ways. ​

    :)

    cannot create folders in windows mail app

    when I go to 'more' in the mail app and click + a dialog display appears however when I enter the name of a new folder and click enter it appears momentarily in the folder list then disappears and a message appears at the top screen saying that the action could not be completed. I have tried the suggestions from the windows help site but nothing works. it appears that my only solution is to uninstall and reinstall the app, however that is not possible because I don't want to lose all my e-mails and accounts.
    I think that the problem is definitely with the app and not some weird Windows thing because I can create new folders with my Gmail account.
    Any suggestions will be appreciated, thanks in advance

    Mail for windows 10 - will not create folders

    Mail for Windows 10 offers the ability of creating your own folders and subfolders. I have followed the steps to do this however I keep getting an error message saying the folder could not be created. My software is up to date and I have tried the other
    troubleshooting suggestion offered (closing the app and opening it again) without success. Other ideas to fix this?
