Many people come to this blog due to
my previous entry wanting to find out how to cancel Windows Live Mail beta.
Why would anybody want to switch back, you ask?
Well, I guess that very question speaks for itself. Livemail needs to put more work into making it more user-friendly.
Here's how to switch back to regular hotmail interface:
1) Log into your Hotmail account,
2) Go to
Options. You can find it on the top right hand corner.
3) At the bottom you'll see "Beta opt-out", Click on it.
4) By opting out, you'll revert back to your original Hotmail account and basic features.
There you go. It's not too difficult, is it?

Had the same problem with the live Beta. The reaaon it doesn't work with some computers is that you need Windows XP or newer. So I downloaded it and it replaced my hotmail but wouldn;t allow me to open or send my mail. I didn't have that 'options' button either! Had to go to a different computer that had newer software and the Live Beta worked fine. I did the opt-out from there and all is back to normal! Thank goodness

A direct link to options would be greatly appreciated. I find it very difficult to open my mails and view them because the page is so jumbled and massive its not funny and there's no scroll button so i have to highlight everything to move down. Can someone post a direct link to opt-out?

if your page doesn't load properly, refresh the page (Ctrl+F5). that should do the trick.
