Windows 10: hotmail access

the hotmail access icon will not open the application - it flashes and shows the envelope, then closes out. However there is notification that there are new emails to be read, so the account must be active.

Not all Hotmail Folders are Updated

Contacts in hotmail


Sorry to confuse you there. When I go into Hotmail now in iexplore and click on the square of dots ( assumed it was settings according to another google search I done) in the blue area I get a list of boxes and the 2nd one is "People". That is where all my contacts are supposed to be. All I get is the beads spinning until I get the message of problems with site. When I go into Firefox browser and log into Hotmail I can click on the "People" box and instantly get all my contacts. Also I checked the "Mail" program in Windows 10 tile section which I have 2 email accounts counting Hotmail and I can access the contacts list there. it seems the past couple days that iexplore cannot display the contacts page which is stored on people.live.com
This is very annoying because I always clicked on my Hotmail link for the quickest access to my Hotmail especially for sending emails.
If I cannot find a fix for this then I may have to set Firefox to my default browser *Sad

cheers
