I set up a new PC with Windows 8. My old Vista 64 PC was using Windows Live Mail 2011 and had several years of email messages with about a dozen different pop email accounts. It always worked perfectly.

Due to having multiple pop email accounts, I installed Windows Live Mail 2012 on the Windows 8 machine and using the Easy Transfer cable I brought in my email accounts and all my messages. But now, for some reason, a few of the accounts will not save the passwords and other account settings, such as "Leave messages on server", etc.

I have tried everything I can think of, run as administrator, and have searched the forums to no avail.

I still get my emails, and for now leave Windows Live Mail open so I don't have to type in the passwords every time I want to check my email. But that is not right.

What can I do?
