I?m sure that I read about this somewhere that they where going to:

Upgrade the oldest active accounts and then

The newer active accounts and then

The inactive accounts.

Even I read that they would upgrade the oldest active ones first then the new active and then the inactive but I don't think it will happen like that.

I think they are just doing it randomly.

Hello Ayub,

Thank you for writing to MSN Hotmail.

My name is Ilaine and I'm writing in response to your inquiry regarding your account size limit.

I understand how important it will be for you to have a bigger mailbox in order to store more important messages. Hotmail has not yet completed the upgrade of all free Hotmail accounts since there are many users of Hotmail. This is why your other account is still using 2MB storage space. I am sorry that I may not be able to commit in giving you the exact date on when Hotmail will complete the upgrade for other free accounts but I would like you to know that you are important to us and that your account will be upgraded soon. We highly appreciate your patience and cooperation on this matter.

In addition to the upcoming storage changes, we've made other changes to improve your MSN Hotmail experience. We've expanded our anti-virus protection to include free virus cleaning, making MSN Hotmail the only free global e-mail service to both scan and clean incoming and outgoing e-mail for viruses and worms before they can enter your inbox and risk infecting your PC.

If you need additional storage now, you may want to consider MSN Hotmail Plus for $19.95 per year. This offer includes:

- 2GB (Gigabytes) of storage

- Ability to send attachments of 20MB

- No graphical advertisements

- Exemption from the 30-day Hotmail inactivity policy

- 30 MB of MSN Groups storage

For more information on this and other MSN subscription plans, visit: http://join.msn.com

I appreciate your patience and continued support. If you have other concerns regarding MSN Hotmail, please do not hesitate to send us a message and we'll be happy to help you in any way we can.

Sincerely,

Ilaine T.

It still amazes me to see people using 2mb inboxes. Incredible. All it takes is a few average sized emails and your full.

My hotmail account has always been 10mb, and i just reactivated to see what it was now, and its still 10mb.

Have people not heard of gmail, walla, and all the other free 1gb+ email places?

How come you people are still with hotmail?

Because my main account for the last 7 years has been Hotmail, and I'm not going to notify every single contact or move every single subscription that I have to Gmail.

    • Microsoft wants to end printer driver headaches with Windows Ready Print

      By Usama Jawad96 · Posted

      Microsoft wants to end printer driver headaches with Windows Ready Print by Usama Jawad A few days ago, Microsoft released Windows 11 Experimental build 26300.8553, bringing a ton of enhancements such as Start menu customization, search improvements, Taskbar polish, and other minor UI tweaks. Another relatively major enhancement snuck deep within the change log was related to upgrades to the Windows printing experience. Now, Microsoft has shared more details about these benefits. For starters, Microsoft has renamed its Modern Print Platform to Windows Ready Print. The company believes that this name highlights its shift in strategy, which now focuses on modernizing, securing, and streamlining the printing experience for Windows devices. Some of the upgrades present in Windows Ready Print have already been seeded to customers and partners. This includes ending support for third-party printer drivers via Windows Update and transitioning towards the Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) and the native Windows IPP printer driver. In line with these changes, new printer installations will default to Windows Ready Print on eligible devices starting from July 2026. However, Microsoft recognizes that not all environments will be able to migrate to this platform immediately, so it will allow users to choose between installing the printer via Windows Ready Print or the traditional OEM process. Users will be able to toggle this configuration through Settings > Bluetooth & Devices > Printers & Scanners > Printer preferences. This control applies only to new printer installations, and its functionality can also be modified via Group Policy as follows: Launch Group Policy Editor Navigate to Local Computer Policy -> Administrative Templates -> Printers Find and select 'Configure Windows Ready Print driver ranking' -> double click to open it Select 'Enabled' (if you wish to enable Windows Ready Print driver selection) or 'Disabled' (if you wish to explicitly disable Windows Ready Print driver selection). Select Apply Select OK Similarly, if you set up Windows protected print mode through the same setting in Windows 11, it will also default to using Windows Ready Print exclusively. Microsoft hopes that these improvements will help eradicate dependency on OEM-specific driver installation processes and simplify printer installations. We'll likely find out more about other tangible benefits in the coming months.

      Agreed, but now my muscle memory immediately creates a layer for each text portion, so editing is made a little easier.
