Re: [Blind-Computing] Moving Back To Windows Mail
Hello Bill; well, according to the following web site, there is a vista fix. I haven't tried it, however,it may be worth a look see for you. http://forums.techguy.org/windows-vista/554006-reinstall-windows-mail.html - Original Message - From: "Bill Gallik" To: Sent: Friday, December 17, 2010 1:17 PM Subject: Re: [Blind-Computing] Moving Back To Windows Mail David wrote: uninstall the windows live 2011, and go back to the earlier version. if you wish to do this, I could send you the earlier version since I kept the executable.

Before I even realized it, WLM was being installed and since Windows Mail wasn't working I opted to try WLM. But, NO, I would not choose WLM as my default e-mail client if I had a functioning version of Windows Mail on the PC. And, I was not able to change settings in Windows Mail neither -- I do believe a DLL or maybe two were corrupted and so Windows Mail isn't able to interact with those particular components of e-mail services.

Re: [Blind-Computing] Moving Back To Windows Mail
hello bill; well, another approach is; uninstall the windows live 2011, and go back to the earlier version. if you wish to do this, I could send you the earlier version since I kept the executable. I don't think you can find the earlier version out their on the net. I could be wrong though! also, if you uninstall WLM2011, and try going back to your windows mail, perhaps you just need to re-do your email account settings. I don't understand why, just because you installed WLM, your windows mail would stop working, since you should have receive a message, windows live is not your default email client, do you want to make it your default client? Yes? no? obviously you would choose no? have a good day. - Original Message - From: "Bill Gallik" To: Sent: Thursday, December 16, 2010 9:30 PM Subject: Re: [Blind-Computing] Moving Back To Windows Mail I haven't tried uninstalling Windows Live Mail.

Re: [Blind-Computing] Moving Back To Windows Mail
bill one thing you can do is; open windows live mail; now, ctrl+ 1 2 3 will do various things for you. ctrl+1=inbox, ctrl+2=calendar, ctrl+3=contacts. this should get you started. as for your window mail, I'm not sure if there's a way to do a repair, without reinstalling windows vista. - Original Message - From: "Bill Gallik" To: Sent: Thursday, December 16, 2010 6:37 PM Subject: Re: [Blind-Computing] Moving Back To Windows Mail Dave asks: "you said you had problems with your windows mail, what were the problems?" There are two issues here: 1) My original Windows Mail component (I presume) lost a key DLL because it couldn't interact with my account(s) information. When I'd try to send an e-mail it would just hang forever (or so it seemed) and would eventually tell me (the OS I presume here) that the program was going to respond. It then asked me if (the OS again I presume) if I wanted to repair the problem. To which, naturally, I eventually answered in the affirmative. Then . . . 2) This no good, damn excuse of an e-mail client (Windows Live Mail) was downloaded and installed on my PC in lieu of Windows Mail (Outlook Express). Then if that wasn't bad enough, I got an innocent enough message one bright morning asking me if I wanted to upgrade my Windows Live Mail; to which, naturally, I answered in the affirmative. Now I have this absolutely crazy interface, can't get to my contacts data, can't do all sorts of things that I used to be able to do like forwarding an e-mail message as an attachment (unless I save the targeted message as a file and attach it to a new message that way).

Re: [Blind-Computing] Moving Back To Windows Mail
Hello there; I'm assuming your using windows vista? since windows mail is the built in email client. you said you had problems with your windows mail, what were the problems? windows mail can replace a corrupted folder, but, I don't think windows mail has a repair feature. and I don't think you can do a reinstall unless you do a reinstall of the operating system. - Original Message - From: "Rick Justice" To: Sent: Wednesday, December 15, 2010 3:25 PM Subject: Re: [Blind-Computing] Moving Back To Windows Mail Hi Bill, Which version of Windows are you using?
