I have been unable to open outlook express for about two weeks
Not sure why I can't access outlook express email. It no longer has a working link when I try it on MSN.

Here are some steps you can take to resolve your issue: 1. Use a Modern Email Client
Since Outlook Express is outdated, consider using a more modern email client. Microsoft Outlook (part of Microsoft Office), Windows Mail (built into Windows 10 and later), or web-based email services like Outlook.com, Gmail, or Yahoo Mail are good alternatives. 2. Access Outlook.com Directly
If you have an Outlook.com email account (formerly Hotmail), you can access it directly through your web browser:
Go to Outlook.com. Sign in with your email address and password.
3. Check Your Internet Connection
Ensure that your internet connection is working properly. If you're having connectivity issues, it may affect your ability to access email services. 4. Update Email Settings
If you are using Outlook Express to access a specific email account, make sure that the server settings are correct. You may need to update the incoming and outgoing server settings based on your email provider's requirements. Here are some general settings for popular email providers:
For Outlook.com: Incoming Server: imap-mail.outlook.com (IMAP) or pop-mail.outlook.com (POP) Outgoing Server: smtp-mail.outlook.com Port: 993 (IMAP) or 995 (POP) for incoming, 587 for outgoing
For Gmail: Incoming Server: imap.gmail.com (IMAP) or pop.gmail.com (POP) Outgoing Server: smtp.gmail.com Port: 993 (IMAP) or 995 (POP) for incoming, 587 for outgoing
5. Consider Upgrading
If you are using an older version of Windows, consider upgrading to a newer version that supports modern email clients. Windows 10 and 11 come with the Mail app, which is a more user-friendly option.
Thanks for your suggestions but the only tab I see is outlooklive.com/mail0/ and nothing happens I do have Windows 11 and all the updates. I can access my mail from Google though.
