Unable to Backup Windows Live Email

Thread needs solution

Hi

I'm having difficulty backing up email only - the backup job runs successfully but if i delete emails from the inbox, and restore - nothing is restores.

I'm the only user on this PC - Windows 7 -I'm using Acronis True Image Home 2012 Build 7133.

Email client is standard Windows Live mail 2011 with a single yahoo pop3 account configured.

Any assistance you provide will be greatly appreciated.

Regards

For Windows Live, simply use a file backup to backup the Windows Live Mail folder, in the C:\Users\USER\AppData\Local\Microsoft\

It is actually preferable, as some issues can occur with email backup when you restore to a brand new computer...
