Windows Live Messenger

Though it was very popular Messenger among all age groups especially, young people, Live Messenger was discontinued by Microsoft in 2013. The main reason for this decision was the acquisition of Skype by Microsoft. Users Now can access Skype with Microsoft email account. Skype is quite popular for Video call and Video conferencing. People were a little upset when they couldn’t download Hotmail Messenger, but they slowly and steadily adapted to Skype Messenger.

As Hotmail Messenger Download is not available, don’t download some random software from third-party sites. You can download Skype Messenger instead of Hotmail MSN Messenger.

Windows Live Messenger (formerly MSN Messenger) is a discontinued instant messaging client developed by Microsoft for Windows, Xbox 360, BlackBerry OS, iOS, Java ME, S60 on Symbian OS 9.x, and Zune HD. It connected to the Microsoft Messenger service while also having compatibility with Yahoo! Messenger and Facebook Messenger. The client was first released as MSN Messenger on July 22, 1999, and was marketed under the MSN branding until 2005 when it was rebranded under Windows Live and has since been officially known by its present name, although its previous name was still used colloquially by most of its users.In June 2009, Microsoft reported the service attracted over 330 million active users each month, placing Messenger among the most widely used instant messaging clients in the world.

Following the acquisition of Skype Technologies in May 2011, Microsoft added interoperability between Skype and Microsoft accounts, allowing Skype (which had features unique to its platform and a wider user base) to communicate with Messenger contacts. In 2013, Windows Live Messenger was discontinued and Microsoft began ceasing service to existing clients. The service in China remained active for another 18 months, and ceased operations on October 31, 2014.

Common Hotmail login problems and their solutions

Hotmail & Outlook users face some problem while accessing their emails. Here we are trying to help you with some common Hotmail login problems.

Many of Hotmail login problems are not actual problems; you can solve them without any problem. While some of the issues are big and you need help from Microsoft. Some of the issues are incorrect username/password, hacked accounts, disabled account, etc. Most of the common problems are listed below with possible solutions.

Hotmail Login Problems and Solutions

Solution to Hotmail Login Problems

Unable to login to Hotmail? Try some of the remedies below.

  1. Check the status of the service.
    Check the exact status of the server of Microsoft on https://portal.office.com/servicestatus. It will show you if there are any temporary server issues on your location. In the event of Hotmail down, you can’t do anything from your side except wait for it to come online. If everything is up and running well, follow the next step.
  2. Check firewall or antivirus program settings.
    Antivirus program installed to protect your personal computer sometimes blocks the Hotmail website. Check your configuration, if you’ve enabled ‘Internet Email Auto-Protect’ or ‘Internet Email Protection’ disable it, or try signing in using next alternate devices.
  3. Check/Update your internet browser.
    Sometimes, we fail to login to Outlook.com because of the browser that we’re using for web surfing. In this case, we suggest to update or install the browser to the latest version that is available to your location. Some features of Outlook may not be available on the old version of web browsers.

If your problem is account related rather than connectivity related, then we suggest you check some of the possible solutions below.

Other Hotmail Sign In Problems

  • Username and Password do not match.
    This issue is noted as the most common Hotmail Login problems because most of us forget our login credentials of Outlook account. If you get pop-up message ‘Username and Password do not match’ then make sure you entered the correct username and its password. First check whether Caps Lock key is on or not, because Outlook.com passwords are case sensitive. You need to type your full email address, don’t omit @Hotmail.com portion while entering your username. If everything is okay and still you didn’t make it, try reset Hotmail password.
    Hotmail Login Problems
  • Account temporarily blocked.
    It can be frustrating if your Hotmail account gets blocked unknowingly and you can’t log in while you need it the most. Have patient. You can get it back. Sometimes email service provider temporarily blocks your account if it caught on any suspicious activities on your account. Generally, if your account is found involved in spamming then you might get blocked.
    To unblock your Microsoft account, sign into it and do follow the on-screen instructions to get a security code. Enter the code after you receive.
  • Accidentally deleted all emails from the inbox.
    You can recover your emails that you accidentally deleted in past days. And this feature also helps in case if any hijacker hacked your Outlook account (can’t access Outlook) and came to delete your all-important emails from the inbox. To recover deleted emails, click ‘Deleted’ folder located on the left-hand side of Hotmail email inbox. Then select emails that you want to retrieve.
    Notice that: Recovering emails feature is not available on child accounts. If you delete emails from child’s account, they will be removed forever.
  • Didn’t receive the verification code.
    If you’re using two-step verification to login or sign in Outlook.com with single-use code, the verification code is essential to complete Outlook login. And if you failed to receive the verification code, make sure that you entered the correct mobile number, and you’ve access to it. We suggest you to use Authentication app to generate code, so you don’t have to rely on the text message to receive security code.
  • Synchronization error 8500201D
    Microsft support says they are aware of the issue and engineers are working to solve this problem. So there are no other ways except waiting for now.

Hotmail Account Deleted
