I have been having this problem (along with others) since I performed Microsoft Updates.

Live mail has worked Flawlessly for 2 years UNTILL NOW.

Windows Live Mail will not open with 0x80041161 error. Now remember, Windows Live Mail WILL NOT OPEN.

 

Reading through forums here, have performed some of the suggestions.

 

Have performed following:

Removed/installed/repaired Windows Live Mail REPEATEDLY

Performed "wlarp"

Checked/re-entered 'services' "Automatic"

Changed suggested Internet Explorer "SSL" and "Certificate Revocation"

 

Any NEW help would be appreciated.

 

Running Windows 7 Professional, 64 Bit, all current updates

Plenty of disc space,

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Cannot send an email with Windows Live Mail now

It was working fine but then it stopped after some Microsoft updates. I've called Dell & Verizon and they both say it's a Microsoft "patch" issue. I've verified all the settings and they are correct. The "requires server authentication" box is checked also. I can receive emails just fine. When I finish an email and go to send it, it just sits in the outbox. If I click on the outbox and hit the "send/receive" button, it will send it but I shouldn't have to do that. Verizon is my email provider, btw...

Not able to send email; Error message: connection to server has failed, WLM error 0x800CCC0E, socket error 10013

Since yesterday, 1/12, I have not been able to send email (no replies, no forwarding, no new messages go out); however, I am still getting messages.  Anytime I try to send a message, it goes to my Outbox and stays there until I delete it. 

With a message in my Outbox, when I try to send/receive email, I get the folowing error: 

The conection to the server has failed 

Subject 'testing my outgoing mail' 

Server: 'smpt.comcast.net'

Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x800CCC0E

Protocol: SMPT, Port: 25

Secure(SSL): No

Socket Error: 10013

I got my last Microsoft updates on 01/09/2013, but I was still able to send messages on 01/11/2013; so I don't think this problem is due to updates. 

When I log on to my email account on the comcast website, I am able to send messages from there.

I tried changing the port number to 587, which was a suggested possible solution, but this did not help.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you.

 

 

Windows Live Mail error ID: 0x800CCC0E

I upgraded my Win7 laptop about a month ago to Win8. Windows Live Mail worked fine with all my accounts at first.

 

About 3 days ago -  12/31/2012 to be specific - numerous Microsoft updates were applied for 3 consecutive days. Now my Windows Live Mail won't send or receive anymore using my ISP account. Here is the error I get:

 

Unable to send or receive messages for the XXXXX account. The connection to the server has failed.

Server: 'pop.ipower.com'
Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x800CCC0E
Protocol: POP3
Port: 110
Secure(SSL): No
Socket Error: 10013


Note that it worked fine prior to the updates. I went to do a system restore to  Jan 1,  2013 and was told that the restore set by Windows Update was defective. So now I am stuck with a laptop that can send/receive emails, without any way to restore it  - short of a complete clean reinstall.

 

Also note that I haven't changed any setting AND with a Windows 7 computer set up the same way, it works just fine - the SAME email account there sends/receives with no errors. So I know it is not the ipower server.

 

Any suggestions what I can do to restore my email to a functioning state? Thanks.

Lost User Name

Help Please,

Over the years I have had to create too many usernames all because of Microsoft updates where my passwords would be deleted and at sametime I may have changed my second contact email address.

In any case, I would like to know if there is a way to see, recover or delete from Hotmail/Microsoft data base, the old usernames.

Even now that I have been able to reset my password AGAIN on the latest username I was unable to log into this site with my user name and password.

So now I have onemore user name to remember.

There must be a way to view all accounts/User Names that have been created under a "First Name - Second Name - Country - Mobile Phone - Year of Birth - Post Code" these would be the same for every registration.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
