How to disable the Windows Live mail sign in Window

Written by

I have Windows 7, when I upgraded all my outlook contacts transferred to Windows Live mail. I entered the pop 3 info for my comcast email account, I have never had to sign in for over a year. Now for some reason everytime I check my email, a  sign in window appears, the email still seems to work, maybe a little more sluggish but the sign in keeps popping up. How do I disable the sign in? If I wanted to get my hotmail mail I know I would need to sign in, but I use it just like I did my outlook account that is connected to Comcast email account.


To disable the sign in window, open Windows Live Mail and go to:
 
  • The Windows Live Mail drop-down menu icon (top left above 'Email Message' icon). 
  • Select 'Options', then click on 'Mail' from the selection offered.
  • In the mail 'Options' property pages, select the 'Connection' tab and click 'Stop Signing in' from the 'Connecting to Windows Live Services' section.
  • Click 'stop signing in' to any warning messages.
  • Click 'OK' to exit the 'Options' Property pages
