OT Anybody have Hotmail? Working?
I guess it's called "Outlook.com" but the URL says "live.com".
I'm having trouble getting to Sent, Deleted, etc. It shows messages there, but nothing happens when I click on those folder names. Thanks. |

Nevermind, for some reason we must double-click on the folders.
I'm very used to single clicking to open stuff in Windows Explorer. |

I usually access my hotmail account thru Thunderbird but I checked the online version just to be sure. |

I doubt that there is some setting. I don't use folders other than Inbox much anyway. Just needed to be able to get to the other folders from time to time. I'm using Firefox 28.0 in Windows 7, FWIW. -- It's no big deal now. |

Maybe related... In the Hotmail tab when there is a new message, I
see a new message indicator "(1)" but when that tab is activated the message does not show in the Inbox until the tab/page is refreshed. I can do some serious troubleshooting on this, like restoring an older installation. If it's troublesome or interesting enough to do so. I suspect it's part of one or two most recent backups, if in fact the problem is on my end. |

If you have another browser installed, try it in that browser. Then you'll know whether it's a Firefox or a Windows problem. |

The next time I do a restore, I will go back a few copies to test. |

But Gmail works just fine... Clicking on folders opens the folders
every time. |

Apparently it's a Windows problem that occurred after the ninth of this month. Amazing how easy solving problems is when you have backups of Windows. Now all I have to do is pay attention to what was installed or upgraded (if it's done again). |
