Yep what I can see is that windows mail appears to be running, but not visible. Indeed I even get notifications that there is new email downloaded with the nice envelope icon sitting there begging it to be opened.
As far as I'm aware it isn't breaking any licencing rules to be running Windows Mail on Windows 7. Indeed most of the files are in the Windows 7 installation, just hidden from view requiring a couple of file changes to bring it to life, easily done if you also have a copy of Vista available, of which I do have a fully licenced version that I no lionger use.

I have identified the offending file causing the problem and it is an easy fix as you need to change an updated dll file.
The update that caused the problem is KB978542 and is for Outlook Express, Windows Mail on Vista and Windows Live Mail on Windows 7.
As I don't want to cause the forum any problems then PM me and will help you out.
I have already sorted out my Windows Mail and, through the group, getting others back up and running again.
