Answer» When I click on my Windows live mail it opens up the sign in box where it asks for my password. If I CLOSE the box it automatically opens up my live mail without even typing in my password. How can I fix this? When I click on my Windows live mail it opens up the sign in box where it asks for my password. If I close the box it automatically opens up my live mail without even typing in my password. How can I fix this? This is most likely a cookie on your system. Why is this a problem?Quote from: Dwayne Austin on July 30, 2010, 03:10:40 AM How can I fix this? Assuming you want it to ask for your password again, delete your cookies. Don't worry, although it might not seem that way, your account is still password protected. It is that way by design. The login is mainly for sending & receiving mail. Once you setup your account the first TIME and it PULLS your mail in, that mail will be viewable whenever you open windows live mail whether you login or not. If you just hit cancel you will see that mail but you will not be able to get new mail or SEND new mail. Get it? Windows live mail is assuming you have permission to open that account because it was created in your windows profile account. So it's not going to stop you from seeing emails that are already in it. If you login to windows with another profile account you shouldn't see your email from your other windows profile account. If you did then I would be worried.

It has to do with "profiles" only insomuch as different profiles are going to have different cookies. |
