The only way I found out that my hotmail account had been switched over to Outlook.com is when Facebook informed me that my e-mail address was no longer valid!!!

Only when I tried to go to my Hotmail account to see what was going on, it wouldn't accept my password and I had to re-set it.  When I eventually got in, I found out that my account had been automatically switched to Outlook.com and my Inbox was empty and all of my folders were gone!!!!  Ten years worth of e-mails and folders!!!!  GONE!!! GONE!!! GONE!!!  No e-mails, no contacts, no folders, all gone!!!

Major fail Microsoft!!!  Just like Windows 8, major fail!!!
