Hotmail was acquired by Microsoft in 1997 for an estimated $400 million and launched as MSN Hotmail, later re-branded to Windows Live Hotmail as part of the Windows Live suite of products. The last version of Hotmail was released in October 2011. As of mid-2011, Hotmail had 360 million users per month. It was available in 36 languages.

Some sob put my email address some place now I’m getting 20 junk emails a hour how do I shut down junk email??
Hello Anthony
Select the message or entire junk folder. Do not open message, just hover the mouse pointer above, you will see check box on left side of message. Select the check box, you will get ‘Block’ option on top. Select block and you will not receive junk mail from that sender again in Hotmail inbox.
I need the desktop version on my mobile device. It’s much easier to block spam from the junk folder. It’s frustrating. Yesterday somehow I was able to access it by changing the browser from internet to chrome and clicking “desktop site” option but today it does not work, I only get the mobile version which is not user friendly.
Hello Mary
You can get desktop site in Firefox and Chrome by clicking ‘Request desktop site’ in browser menu if you don’t prefer Hotmail mobile site. We request you to try ‘Outlook App’ which is very easy to use, you can add multiple email account and access Onedrive from the app.
Hi. I’ve tried requesting the desktop site on chrome but it’s no longer working. I’m not able to use the BLOCK feature on my email in the junk folder using the mobile app.
Also why can’t I swipe across multiple emails to delete the bunch? This feature as working after the conversion but no longer working now?
Where is the BLOCK feature located on the mobile site?
It’s easy to delete multiple or all emails from Hotmail mobile site. If you want to delete multiple emails from Junk folder, Go to that folder and press and hold on any email, you will get check box on left side of email, you can select multiple emails and delete. If you want to delete entire junk folder, select the check box on top written Junk Email, it will select all emails on junk folder, if you select delete, entire spam mail folder will be deleted.
Hello Mary
I’m afraid there is block feature available in Outlook mobile app.
To get desktop site in Chrome, can you try clear cookies and cache in chrome and try again.
I can not log into my hot mail account because it tells me someone else is using my account and this is not true. P lease help me log into my account.
Hello Mary
If someone else’s account is logged in then you can sign out from that account and login with your own Hotmail email id.
All of a sudden my Hotmail account won’t load on my computer I cant get anything I haven’t had this trouble before its like it can’t find it.
I don’t like this new Hotmail… outlook or whatever…. I never did. I want to be able to sign in my regular Hotmail.com account I have had for years.
Unable to access my account
Hello Margaret Jones
What is the problem? You forgot username password? Or what kind of problem when you try to login?
I’m travelling and do not bring my mobile phone with me as I’ve been seriously overcharged. I now find because of hotmail security I cannot access my emails without having to turn on mobile roaming on my phone to confirm its me. Isn’t my password good enough.
I can’t get a reply to this email because of your security grrrr.
Hello Margaret Darcy
Hotmail has introduced that security feature to prevent hackers from accessing your account from unknown location or device. If you travel always we suggest you to add alternative email address from where you can security code.
You can also use mobile to verify your identity, if overcharge is your problem you can keep it in flight mode. You can verify with authenticator app. Once you activate authenticator app, you can use it to verify Hotmail account.
Download Microsoft authenticator app on iPhone

Your Hotmail account may have deactivated so you can’t access it. However there is a option by which you can get your account back.
Go to Hotmail sign up and sign up with same email account which was deactivated.
Once you create that account, ask the person/organization to re-send your tickets in that mail.

I feel like this is a disservice for me in login to get to my personal email account. I’m very frustrated with your system. Every time I go to open my email account you are asking me the same question regarding a code. If, you have the code then why are you keeping me from login in. If, you sent this to my cellphone why do I need to enter my pen before letting me use my service. You keep telling me this is for my protecting this is a hindrance to me. I’m very sick and tired of this mess. Whenever, I logon to whatever computer don’t INTERFER WITH MY SERVICES AND TIME. I SHOULDN’T HAVE TO ENTER A CODE EVERYTIME I USE HOTMAIL. WHENEVER, YOU ENTER THE CODE YOU ASK ANOTHER QUESTION WHICH ANNOYS ME EVEN MORE AND IT IS A WASTE OF MY TIME AND YOURS. SIGNED PISSED OFF!!!!!!

Do you want to unsubscribe emails in Hotmail account?
Login to your Hotmail account.
Open the email you want to unsubscribe
Generally at the end of the email there is ‘Unsubscribe’ option. If you don’t see it ‘Ctrl+f’ and search unsubscribe.
Or you can also login to sites which you’ve subscribed and unsubscribe from the setting.

Hello Zahida bibi
Your Live account has been changed to Outlook. Microsoft is updating this new look to all Hotmail,Live and Outlook users. This is not a problem, it’s just upgraded version.
Can you please tell me where my Hotmail account (******@hotmail.com) has gone to from my laptop. I opened up my laptop a couple of weeks ago and it has completely disappeared. Every time I do a search and try to do a simple login I keep getting an Outlook screen or an instruction to download Google Chrome or to sign up for something called faster login or some such name. I cannot find my Hotmail account therefore I have lost 3 years of work related to a committee that I am on including all of my contacts for the committee and all of my emails for the committee. This is totally unacceptable. I do not want to use Google chrome or Outlook or Faster login. I just want to log into my Hotmail email account on my computer.
Fortunately I can still access this to a slightly limited degree on my phone and iPad but they do not give me access to everything I want.
Why you have to keep changing these things is totally beyond me. It is not progress or improvement if it makes life difficult.
Please just tell me how I can get Hotmail back on my laptop without having to download a whole heap of shit I do not want and know nothing about.
Hello Susan Hughes
Open hotmail.com from your browser (Internet explorer/Edge/Safari)
Enter your Hotmail username and password. (If you got into Outlook page, no problem. As Hotmail is upgraded to Outlook. Once you logged in you can get access to all your Hotmail emails and contacts)
There is an option called ‘keep me Signed in’ just below the password box. Check on that box, so from next time you will not have such problem.
Hi, I keep receiving alerts on my phone that hotmail sign in has failed when I have not attempted to sign in.
Why is this happening?
Do I need to be worried that someone is trying to hack in?
I am not able to access sent items. Kindly help.

Hello Laura
This is because Microsoft’s security system detect login to your Hotmail account from unusual place. This is for your own security. And for code in email means you will receive security code in your alternative email address. It’s the email address which you use to reset your Hotmail account password. So please check your another email address and find the security code.
The problem is that in my other account “laura******@hotmail.com” they say my password is incorrect and is all over again, they will send a link to change my password to my account “lauras***@hotmail.com” that I can not open.
And is a big problem because my husband also can not open his account. I already open one account in OUTLOOK but still the same!! I hope you can help me with this, because for every thing (booking hotels, or escurssies, etc all the confirmations are sending to me or my husband.

Hello Sheila
Hotmail password reset requires 7 digit code,which you will receive in your mobile.
Follow the password reset process thoroughly

2. Click ‘can’t access your account’
3. Check the box ‘I forgot my password’ and click ‘Next’
4. Enter your Email in first box and enter captcha code in second box written ‘Enter the character you see’ and click ‘Next’
4. It will ask ‘how would you like to get your security code’ select any one. If you select mobile number enter last 4 digit of your mobile. (You may have mistaken this with security code. It’s not security code, enter last 4 digit of your mobile number.)
5. Click ‘send code’ if last 4 digit of your mobile number is correct you will receive a security code in your mobile inbox.
6. Enter the 7 digit security code you received and you can make new password for your Hotmail account.

Have the shameless, irresponsible people at Microsoft done any redressal of the complaints being raised by people here ? I too am not able to open my Hotmail Account for years now.
Hello Rohit
If you have not logged in for years, it mean your account is deactivated. If any Hotmail user doesn’t sign in to their account in 365 days will be deactivated according to ‘Terms & condition’ of outlook.com
Hello Josh
If you doubt someone got access to your Hotmail account, We advise you to change your Hotmail password and you can also enable two-step verification so no one can login to your Hotmail account except you.
After opening a couple of emails, a message appears on the top of the page saying ” Outlook cannot be accessed right now; please try again later.”
“Later” usually does not occur within a reasonable amount of time and I have
to start over again in a few hours. Am NOT pleased with the new system. In
the past, I could access my 20 or 30 emails per day all at one time without any such notice or problems.
Are you having same problem in all devices or browsers or particular device/browser only? If you are having this on individual browser only, please try to login from different browsers like Chrome/Firefox.
If you are using Internet explorer you can try to reset IE setting. http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/internet-explorer/reset-ie-settings#ie=ie-10
Is your Hotmail account is verified with your mobile number? If not so please verify it.
Singing with hot mail should not change. It should activate as before
so, the member will not get confused, now I get mail in a long rounded way,
and it also do no remember my p.w. I feel, that ‘microsoft’ do not care for others with easy option.
Thanking you,
G. Sarkar
Hello Gauranga Sarkar
The layout of Hotmail is changed to outlook.com so users can get better service and security from Microsoft. And you allow your computer to remember your Hotmail login credentials. Please tick mark the option saying ‘keep me signed in‘ while logging into Hotmail.
I cannot find all of my previous emails, I need to locate them – I really hope that y’all didn’t lose/delete all of my Hotmail emails!
Hello Ssie Miletello
Your Old emails will not be deleted automatically. There is a search box written ‘Search Email’ on left top corner of Outlook Inbox. Please enter sender name, message subject etc to search your old emails.

Chris do yo remember how long it’s been since your mother last logged in to Hotmail account? If it’s more than a year then it’s inactive. Hotmail has policy which says your account will be expired if you don’t use for a year.

I didn’t request to close my account what is this.
Hello Aiman
If you didn’t make that request then your email id may have been compromised. Please login your Hotmail account from web. Hotmail will welcome you back and ask to verify your account. Please verify it and change your password and check all security setting. If possible please enable two-step verification so other can’t login from your email id.

Hello Gwendolyn Aaron-Smith
What kind of trouble you are facing? If you tell more specifically about the trouble you face while logging in Hotmail account, we will be able to identify the problem and suggest you.
I like to say I dislike the new lay out of the msn Hotmail. Please how can I get the old one back.
Web, Apps and technology needs updates and is constantly changing in nature. Hotmail’s New layout cannot be changed back Answered here
So frustrated. I am trying to log into my hotmail but not from my usual laptop/computer. When I go into msn hotmail it wants to send me a security code to my other hotmail so i can access it which is fine but then I need a security code to get into my other email that has the security code!!! How on earth do I just get into my hotmail without all these security codes which I can’t acces anyway.
Your Hotmail account seems to have “Two Steps Verification” active.
To turn two-step verification on or off
Go to the Security settings page, and sign in with your Microsoft account.
Under Two-step verification, choose Set up two-step verification to turn it on, or choose Turn off two-step verification to turn it off.
Follow the instructions.

I havt used my account in awhile and now when I try to sign in it tells me I have entered the wrong password. what should I do?
If you are more specific about time,it would be better. There may be 2 scenario
1st – You have forgot your password, You can easily reset your Hotmail password. Check the Hotmail password reset steps in above reply.
2nd – If it is more than a year,then it is possible that your id is deactivated and recycled so someone else own that id.
I have forgotten my hotmail account password. I have attempted numerous time to reset my password but I keep winding up at a Microsoft outlook account. I created a Microsoft account thinking that might help. NOPE!
