Windows 10: Win Live MAIL problem

I have a new laptop with Win10 installed and ever since downloading WinLive Mail, Win Live Mail has given me problems.

It spends hours saying it is upgrading, I cannot get rid of it unless, I shut the laptop down and remove the battery. This is ridiculous. Anyone else with the same problem and an answer as to how to fix it?

Frankly, I am fedup with the goons who put Win10 on the market without proper protection for customers. I already have had one laptop made completely useless by installing Win10 and I will be really furious if Win10 blows up this new laptop as well.

Windows 10 mail

Hi JD,

Yes the update repaired my Mail App problems also. I wish the "Mail Live Tile" displayed new mail info until the Mail App is opened. Like it did in WIN 8.1

Now in Win 10 the live tile goes away after 15 minutes. I think you should go back and mark a few of my posts as "Helpful" (hint). My Norton firewall is on and everything is working.

 

ELARA App preventing shutdown

it appears just after setting up my live mail account and blocks after restarting also the appearance of the desktop.

It happens before also with the computer when upgraded to win 8.1 (requires logon with live mail) so I had to install back win 7 and did not appear after upgrade on win 10 before signing up with live mail.

 

Suggestion only :
If you can use WLM at all, open it, backup the emails you want to keep.
Go to Programs and Features > find Windows Essentials ( either 2011, or 2012 )> right click at it > click Uninstall.

Use the link below and reinstall Windows Essentials 2012.......

Adding................. I have been using WLM since the early days of Win 7.
I have WLM on Win 10 Home and Win 10 Pro. Not a problem.

 

Many people use WLM on Win 10 machines without issue, I personally use it on several machines with Win 10 and have no problems so I don't think it's an OS problem.

Maybe uninstalling/re-installing as davidhk suggested will help. That would be where I would start.

 

PS894,
How is your current status ?
Have you solved the issue ?

 

Thankyou for your helpful reply. I, too have used WLM since Win 7 without problems. I just wonder what this constant downloading has done to my laptop. I will have to re-install. Such a nuisance.

 

Well...... so far WLM seems to be doing OK. I repaired it instead of uninstalling. I should have thought of that first before bothering other people with my complaint.

 

Yes. I forgot about the Repair option all together.
Good to know you have the problem sorted.
