Hi Edmeister, I have now done this but still have the problem, I also cleared everything and shut right down, no luck.

Are you using a bookmark to go to the mail page?

Does it work if you go to the https://login.live.com page to log in?

Thanks Cor-el, thats sorted it, I couldnt use https://login.live.com that took me to my outlook profile only and not emails. I searched for outlook.co.uk and loged in through that page and took me straight to emails ok. I have deleated old bookmark and created new one. microsoft must have changed something in the link.

thanks for your help.

Alan Friedy. :-)

https://mail.live.com should prompt you to login and bring you to the mail page, so you can choose to create a bookmark with that link.
Outlook uses a lot of domains for load balancing, so if you would bookmark the page with your inbox that open after you have signed in then this may not work properly.
