Few things;

- You need to an internet explorer to click the join now button. Doesnt work in Firefox or opera.

- MSN/WLM has adverts but people dont whine about that each and every beta or release

- There will be a patch no doubt to remove the ads no doubt

- Personally I still prefer Outlook express.

- Windows Live Mail Vista != Windows Live Mail Desktop - right?

LOL! The site was down right away. Few people got to see how it actually looks like. Btw to original poster, thanks and I was just joking...wasn't trying to be mean or anything. I am just amused about the hype that is going on with that plugin and I doubt anything else is "important" right now.

Nice screenshots. Like the interface *sans ads :crazy: *

I recieve the invite a long time ago, I'd give it a shot if they removed the ads :/ Why would we use this, when we can use Outlook or Windows mail for our hotmail/msn/live accounts? It seems that ever since Windows Live Mail has been released for the sole purpose of taking up more ad space than before...

BTW Is it possible to remove the ads by simply using ResHacker or something similar?

I quite like WLMD. I prefer it to thunderbird and outlook, as both of those lagged constantly. Mail desktop is much faster, and has a nicer look to it, without the ads anyways... Like this

A quick reshack fix, and the ads are gone, looks much better without a pointless banner to the side eh?

Can anyone tell me why Microsoft's Mail Clients open the first e-mail all the time? Even the WLM Webmail does that now. I simply don't like something opening my e-mails without my permission. I even sent them an e-mail about it over 2 months ago.

you can stop it doing it in windows live mail somewhere it will just show your inbox but wont open any message.

does this actually DOWNLOAD the messages and then save them on your computer. or does it just download them from the internet each time?

      I'm not sure about that, but it at least "does" a version of 7.1 that this brand new card doesn't....

    • Microsoft confirms Windows 11 26H2 to finally get one of the most requested features

      By WaltC · Posted

      I can barely recall getting web results from a file search... I must've turned it off long ago. 26H2 is Insider's Preview build 26300.8697, which I am running, atm. It is not available for people running the standard commercial builds of Windows--only for the beta test Insider's group. But anyway, as mentioned in the thread, this feature has been around for a long time...

      Speak for yourself. I saw it on Feedly, came here to read it, and did read it until the steps to activate. I skipped them to read the last paragraph. I knew it was probably not "the most requested feature", but knowing Neowin, I knew the article was going to talk about a feature nonetheless. I've seen Neowin in its best and worst.
    • I restored the default settings to Secure Boot. Big mistake

      See if this article I wrote the other day works for you.
