I'm having trouble with this new Windows (8 or 9 or whatever it is). Many many times my e-mail locks up (on all the accounts I have), so often I get the "explorer cannot display the page" error or it takes longer more often to open up a page. (a lot more than when I used XP!) Is there a problem with this newest Windows program? Is anyone else experiencing this? (I just bought a new tower about a month ago, so it's not that. I also know about clearing browsers, etc. ....No-go)

What email system are you referring to?

most versions of Windows 8 come with Windows Mail pre-installed. This application is different than what users of Microsoft Outlook or Hotmail are used to using. Windows Mail 8 uses the live tile system that Windows 8 created. Live tiles are what Microsoft has called the squares that are on the main screen of Windows 8.



This application is compatible with all the major email clients. Yahoo, Gmail, Hotmail and Outlook accounts are easily integrated by inputting the account name and password information of the user. The program runs ultra-fast and allows users to quickly skim through their emails. The Microsoft Mail app also syncs with the built-in calendar, people, and messaging apps that Microsoft also includes in Windows 8. This built-in integration out-of-the-box allows users to swiftly start accessing their emails on their new installation of Windows 8.



Touch Screen Compatibility



Due to Windows 8 heavily featuring touch screen capabilities, those with touch screen versions of Windows 8 can now type emails straight from their touch screen compatible devices easily.



Multiple Email Apps Located in the Windows Store



One of Windows 8's bigger feature was the introduction of the Windows Store. This store is similar to Apple's App Store and the Google Play store in that it is loaded with applications that are specifically designed to run on the user's hardware. If a user wants to try out a Windows 8 compatible email-client that is not Windows Mail, they can simply search the Windows Store.



A couple of examples of innovated email apps from the Microsoft Store include AgelessEmail and GmailAlerts. AgelessEmail shows the user's contacts as tiles and shows if they have new emails from each specific contact. GmailAlerts uses the live tile system to give alerts to the user anytime they receive an email from their Gmail account. Windows 8 is still relatively new and more and more creative email apps are sure to come down the pipeline which take advantage of Windows 8's tile and touch screen features.

What you're describing isn't typical, and that i will guess money that Vista isn't to blame. I definitely have Vista engaged on 3 desktops at homestead and around 10 at artwork, and this habit is rather incorrect. the priority isn't Vista. it relatively is plausible that your pc has a plague, extraordinarily given which you suggested you probably did no longer purchase a plague scanner till after it started out to decelerate. in case you install a plague scanner on a gadget that's already contaminated, some viruses are waiting to disable the scanner and cover from it. if it is the case, format thecontinual and reinstall the OS or use the gadget restoration disc - that could desire to preserve it. whether, it sounds to me like this may be a hardware subject. it relatively is probable undesirable RAM, a foul no longer easycontinual, or CPU issues. one thank you to attempt and verify is to look at your adventure Log. flow on your start up Menu, then the administration Panel. flow to Administrative techniques and then adventure Viewer. look for errors and see in the event that they point out any specific hardware or application. If the pc is new and nonetheless decrease than guarantee, touch the producer. they might desire to be waiting that can assist you you run some diagnostics and then restore it for you. i could guess it relatively is undesirable RAM or a foul no longer easycontinual.

Some people are having problems with Windows 8. But new computers also have problems sometimes.
