1426456 2016-09-24 23:57:00 Hi,

Of late I have had hours at a time when microsoft will not remember the basic password to get into the e mail program--- although I had no trouble starting the initial start up of the day in the turning on and starting W10--but from then on a window appears saying the server has not recognised the password

Yesterday I spent three hours trying, then all of a sudden I was in- without any input from me---why?

Today four hours with the password in place it once again will not enter so I have to go into the internet and have no trouble with the password

Can I set this to "no password required? or even better how can I prevent this nonrecognition

1426457 2016-09-25 00:06:00 Are you referring to the Windows 10 APP, or some other email program, Eg: Outlook, Thunderbird, Windows Live mail ?

Also what Type Email account ? A ISP or one of the Microsoft.coms ?

I am now trying Windows Outlook as my e mail program over Windows Live mail--- but before I can get win outlook I have to enter a password which was successfully used yesterday and has to be accepted by the program before I can use say xtra or windows hotmail account password which bounces,--
I appear to have succeeded entering G mail mail and using it in this new program but xtra and hotmail keep asking for a password which is rejected until the Microsoft apps accepts the allocated password-- which it will not today but did yesterday

1426459 2016-09-25 01:09:00 Hi again

The refusal to accept a password is
microsoft Outlook server which will not accept any password-- just checked Windows Live Mail and it is working perfectly-- if this be so where do I correct this or should I uninstall the apps and go back to using W L M
