Original title: windows mail on W8 to windows live mail?

I hate the mail program on my new laptop, Windows 8.  How can I change the email program to Windows Live Mail as I use with Windows 7?

Hi B Looney,

Thank you for your reply.

  1. Are you referring to mail app in Windows 8?
  2. Are you trying to use Windows Live mail instead of mail app?

Windows Live Mail.

    Go to Windows store, got you your account/apps, it will see it's there or not, try to reinstall app. EASY
