I'm also having this issue and I don't even use this service. I even tried removing the program and I still get it. It started happening after windows did an update. I am not very computer savvy so I am afraid I am not going to be much help but I hope ya'll find a fix because its very annoying.
Windows Live ID Sign-in Assistant to be disabled
I got following error message while I log in to my windows account and only my account.
I tried to set Windows Live ID sign-In Assistant to manual start in Windows Services. it only works one time, once I start using Windows Live mail and log out and log back in then I get error messaged again. I tried to msconfig and uncheck Windows Live IS Sign-In that I do not see error message, but Windows Live Mail cannot launch,
I use Windows 7 Home Premium version.
It looks like that it has something with Windows Live mail,
Your help and information is great appreciated,
Regards,
Souris,
Here is error message,
There was a problem that caused parts of the Windows Live ID Sign-in Assistant to be disabled. You might not be able to sign in to Windows Live in some programs. The problem may have been caused by a program that was recently installed. For more information, please go to: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkId=144689

Since I have the 2012 version of WLE I did not do anything with Michelle's download link.

No can do. When I try to download a pop-up appears advising that I already have a newer version of Live Essentials installed and to install this version I have to uninstall my current version. The link you provided appears to point to an earlier version.
Please advise
Andrew
