Lost Contacts and Mail in WIndows Live Mail
Dear Group
I have been using Windows Live Mail on a Windows 8 machine and two days ago all was well. Then I did a series of Updates through Windows Update. All my contacts are gone and the .edb file is empty. Import for current user does not import anything. I have read a number of articles from a google search of Windows Live Mail Contacts Missing but have not been able to resolve the issue. Any ideas? Thanks

Might get more focused help from the WLM community over at: microsoft.public.windows.live.mail.desktop

Thanks First...nothing Windows Live or Windows Essentials is deployed via Windows Updates nor does anything else in Windows 8 use or access the same contact databases as WLM. The Windows Live Mail group would be the appropriate place to ask for support, though it would be prudent if doing so to include the following information about your system in that same request. - Using a Microsoft or Local account in Windows 8 - Version of Windows Live Mail - Signing on with a Microsoft account to Microsoft Services in WLM - Not Signing on with Microsoct account to Microsoft Services in WLM The latter two are important...since each mode (Sign On or No Sign On) has its own unique Contact database....and only one can be active at any point in time. - -- ....winston msft mvp consumer apps
