    i had a client with bad 8.1 to 10 upgrade and store and apps were broken.
    tried it all. o_O
    finally the mediacreationtool.exe ran "upgrade this (win 10 already) pc" and that fixed it. :clap:

    It seems that you still do not believe that it cannot be repaired? Not in any way cannot. what helps, I said already.
    And forget forever this obsolete Live Mail. And also all other obsolete, malware and not-necessary software.
    Use only this, what is trusted and updated.
    Everything isn't still gold that glitters.

    I fought with Windows Live Mail and my Outlook.com account for many months and finally gave up. M$ makes pure garbage when it comes to email clients and I'm including Outlook!!!

    Everyone should save them self lots of time and frustration, switch to Thunderbird.

    Yes, it's quite typical problem for a long time. I also had and that is why I'm a little studied it.
