Vista - Live mail freezes

Hi,

On occasions my live mail freezes. I wish to uninstall and reinstall. Will
my address book and mail folders remain intact throughout this procedure?

Many thanks,
Brian

Yes they will.

If you remove the pop3 accounts in WLM prior to add-remove(uninstall), then *no*.

For insurance...it is wise to export(to an external drive, usb thumb drive, different partition/folder, etc) your accounts,
messages and contacts prior to uninstalling.
- accounts export to an iaf file
- contacts export to a csv file
- messages(use WLM File/Export/Messages and export all to a blank folder[required]

Unlike pop3 accounts, Windows Live ID accounts(those capable of Hotmail web ui access) retain messages and folders.
