Kalju Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Hi, I am using windows 8 and when i am typing in a doc or browser or where ever I window keeps popping up asking me to add an email accounts. How do I stop this from happening?thxI have one more question - are you using Windows 8 with Windows or the local account. Ad how often You usually are asked to verify Your account data ie how often You must resend or renew Your username and password.The last question is this - do you use genuine activation or something else.

But then is possible to see or can be understand something, what's the reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike.mt Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 @bruinator you have not mentioned what email client you are using.To set correct associations:-Control Panel / Default Programs / Set your default program - What ever email client/s installed - set or choose defaults.Should that not give you the requited result. Search computer for common email extensions .eml, .msg, .ost, .pst etc & check the have correct associations ie right click "open with" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
