    WLM has quit Working


    WLM has quit working - HELP! I have tried repairing but there was no change. If I reinstall will I lose all my emails and calendar information? Probably? Please help.

    Your Email Messages and Account(s) are stored under:
    %UserProfile%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Live Mail
    You can manually copy the whole folder to somewhere else just in case then do a clean install of WLM.

    I am assuming that you received the same email we, the WLM users, have received, and you ran the update (KB3093594) given to you from the email.
    If that was the case, after you have reinstall Windows essentials and WLM is back in action, do NOT run that update again.

    Thanks for the response. I DID NOT reinstall as I am concerned about losing my history. Instead I did a repair which did not help. If I reinstall will I keep my history? Thanks, Nick.
