Windows 10: Composing an email or message, is there any way I can save what I've typed AS I TYPE ?

Hi,This has happened to me a few times. I am elderly and have very inconsistent movements in my hands, with the result I may be composing an email or any such text, and inadvertently press a wrong key and the message is wiped out. Is there any way all of what I am typing and each additional word can be saved as I type ?AD

email page setup

I was trying to configure an email page in Vista. Originally, when I typed an email it would drop down to the next line on the page when I got to the side of the message window. In my attempts I changed something and now I type forever all on the same line....it goes way off the screen to areas unknown. Does anyone know how to get me back to a normal print layout when composing emails?
I messed with the format options while composing a message and also tweeked the compose options under the tools catagory while on the windows email home page.

Thanks, chirp

 

Email typing frustration, is there a fix?

I very much enjoy using my surface 3, and when typing with the on screen keyboard there are suggestions of words, it also appears that these suggestions can learn from what you have typed previously.

It cannot however remember my email address, which is long and annoying to type. Is there a way of adding an email to suggested words? Much like a mobile phone would automatically do?

I have become increasingly frustrated by the lack of this feature, which would save masses of time!

Would be grateful for any suggestions.#

Many thanks

 

Emails saved to drafts while still typing using the Windows 10 Mail APP

Hi Pat,

Sorry for the inconvenience caused.

• When exact this happens, while composing a new email or while replying/forwarding to emails or with both?
• Is the issue confined with composing a new email or replying/forwarding to one particular sender or domain or with all?
• Is that the only primary account configured in Windows 10 Mail App or it is an additional account?
• If yes, then is that a Microsoft account? if not, then please specify.

If that is an additional account, then I suggest you to remove the account and reconfigure it and check the behavior.

I suggest you to try the steps provided in the link below.
