  1. Windows Mail storage folder


    An older version of Windows Mail allowed me to create a storage folder and subfolders so that I could save copies of email on my computer. I can't seem to find that option for my new computer with the latest version of Mail. Can someone point me in the right direction? I would like to export the currently saved messages on the old computer to the new one and continue to save important messages they come in. Thank you.

    :)

  2. Windows Live email folders

    Hi,

    I would suggest you locate the Windows Live Mail Folder and see if your important folders are available.

    Follow the steps below:

    Step 1: Show all hidden Files.

    • Click on File Explorer and then click on the View Tab.
    • Check Show Hidden Files/Folders.
    Step 2: Open the WLM Store folder.

    • Go to the Mentioned path: C:\Users\YOUR_USERNAME\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Live Mail
    • Now go to the Storage folders location and look for your important folders.
    • If they are available, follow the steps below.
    • Make a copy of Windows Live Mail Folders and store it in a path you can easily access.
    • Now, open Windows Live Mail Account.
    • Click Alt + F key and press Import Messages.
    • Select Windows Live Mail and click Next.
    • Browse the folder and locate the file.
    • Finally press Next.
    • You will find your imported messages in the Imported folder.
    Hope this helps. Please respond if you have further related queries.

    Regards,

    Importing Storage Folders from WLM to Windows 10

    Hi,

    To resolve your concern, see the steps below:

    • Create the folders; then, go to one of your storage folders.
    • Select all; then, drag them to the online folder. (It will sync over to your Windows 10 app via the online email service).

    Let us know how it goes.
