I found out that windows 8 comes with Windows Defender. OK, that's a given. I downloaded Windows Essentials 2012 so I can get the Movie Maker. If I uninstall the Windows Essentials 2012, while doing this, will I also be deleting the OneDrive that holds
all my stuff I put into it? And, by uninstalling W.E. 2012, will my Windows Defender stay in place protecting my computer? I get a lot of mixed answer's elsewhere and need a definitive answer. Thank you.
I trying to subscribe to newsgroups in Windows Communities.
When Windows Live Mail tries to download the newsgroups it tells me:
"Windows Live Mail cannot connect to the internet, possibly because an antivirus or firewall wont allow it....."
I've checked Windows Defender and Windows Firewall but found no setting to allow Window Live Maul to access the internet.
Any ideas how I can use Windows Community newsgroups?

The connection to the server has failed.
Subject 'Heads up for Amber'
Server: 'outgoing.verizon.net'
Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x800CCC0E
Protocol: SMTP
Port: 25
Secure(SSL): No

I'm running out of time here guys - I've uninstalled MSE 3 hours ago because Windows Defender had broken down. The new download is standing by BUT the error code is preventing installation.
PLEASE ADVISE ME ASAP.

Hi!
I had a motherboard failure on New Year's Day. I luckily had a backup. I pulled the info for my Windows Live Mail off of the old hard drive. I have all of the folders. I did begin to restore yesterday and have run into some issues. I am at this point unsure of how to proceed. Please bare with me as I list the current issues in the order that they occurred. I appreciate your help in advance.
I was using Windows 7 before the motherboard failure. My new machine runs Windows 8. I do not have any anti-virus on it yet. Windows Firewall and Windows Defender are running.
I have 12 email accounts that I was restoring. They range from Hotmail, and Gmail to domain name accounts.
As I was restoring I noticed that some accounts, the domain accounts, did not import the messages. It tells me that it IS importing the thousands of messages to "inbox" for example, but they are not there or anywhere that I can find. I tried to do it again, but got the same results. This is happening to a few accounts. The .eml files are definitely there and it is definitely going through the "import" function showing that they are being imported.
Second, none of my sub-folders get loaded. I know that the .eml are there and it shows that it is importing them, but alas, no files are there. I really need these loaded in the same structure that they were previously in WLM. I can see that the sub-folder structure is there in the backup files.
Third, under Send/Receive I have duplicate account names for almost all of my accounts. This is very annoying. I suspect that I caused this when I retried the imports, but I am not sure. Regardless, I need a way to fix this.
I hope that someone can help me to figure this out. I really need my email back to the way it was.

Something called Iminent has got onto my computer !!!
I thought I'd run Windows defender but I cannot access it.
Also when I click the Google Chrome button it goes straight
to this rotten Iminent.
How do I get rid of it - my computer is so slow now.
I am on Windows 7 btw.
Thank You.
(sorry didn't know what category to put this under)
Hi.
i am receiving spoof emails constantly.
the problem is that changing my password wont help, i even added more protection with the authenticator, but before it i had chosen the option when you get the code via sms but then i started getting 1-2 messages per day even if i didnt try to use my outlook.
I scanned my pc with windows defender, and Kaspersky internet security 2013 witch is the best rated anti-vir on market and my pc is clean so i dont need to think of it anymore, luckily nobody (i think) from my contact list gets those spams, cause of nobody has complained.
But the fact that tried everything from security to changing aliases didnt help. even if i change my name on screen the next time i get the msg it has the new name on it.
ill add the copy of the msg source so maybe you can tell me if my pc/account is compromised or is it just a regular spoof and i dont have to worry?

Today I booted up my computer and opened Microsoft Office. I use Office daily as I'm a writer and I also send correspondence to newspapers.
I opened a Word file to do some revision and receive this message, "word could not create the work file. Check the temp environment variables".
I closed Office and checked my Log Files: a continuation of errors, Ntfs, Volsnap, VSS, Net Runtime?
I then opened the action Centre white flag there was one problem listed " Windows needs to scan your computer from possible threats"
I clicked on the Microsoft shield to find out the scan operation had been "locked"?
OK, I then went Windows Defender and found everything normal "green background with a white tick.
Clicked on Scan, halfway through, a scan a message "Windows Defender could not scan your PC. Clear History!
I then checked the boxes, Quarantined items, Allowed Items, and All detected items--they were all blank? No history to clear.
Next to Firewall, same green background with a white tick and yes I was connected to the internet.
Then off to System Restore: last backup date 22/07/2013. Set System Restore in motion.
Messaged received: "cannot restore files some files corrupted".
So, I checked my Registry, no files are corrupted.
So back into Windows Office opened a file and tried to print out the correspondence; Windows would not allow the process. OK, I managed to copy the correspondence and send the correspondence to a newspaper via Outlook. At this stage I do not no whether I have been successful.
Next I turned to my Apps and found out that Windows thought I was a spy!
I tried to open the Windows Solitaire App and found myself under scrutiny: " Who are you? To prove you are legit enter your password".
I did this and was allowed to play.
Then I went to my e-mail account and to my amazement discovered this message: "Your are currently signed in an Office 365 e-mail account canot be used with Outlook. com.
Well that news to me there is no Outlook 365 on my hard drives.
The upshot, I cannot use any of my Office 2010 files, I cannot use my printer, I cannot download from the internet (my internet defaults to Excel)
There was nothing wrong with my computer yesterday evening my hard drive was humming along beautifully.
Do you know what my next step is? In order to restore my Office files I will have to "refresh" my files and wipe my hard drive clean of any files that are non-Microsoft.
This has happened five times since April.
Not impressed, a certain brand of fruit is looking inviting.
