Win7 SP1 may not install if you did the Windows Mail hack
"Gary VanderMolen" wrote in message ... I don't recommend it. Most likely due to that hack, I wound up having to do a two hour repair/reinstall of Windows 7, before I could install SP1. I don't know if it already has SP1 or not. I don't know where to look. It updates automatically. We haven't been able to find an email program we like better than WM. We've tried several and didn't like any of them. You are likely to run into some odd incompatibilities, if not now, then certainly in the future.

Win7 SP1 may not install if you did the Windows Mail hack
Control Panel System
That screen will tell you the version of Windows you have including the Service Pack level. I also liked Windows Mail, but reluctantly gave it up when I realized that over time it will become less and less compatible with Windows 7 and newer versions of IE. Sometimes you just have to bite the bullet. :-) Gary VanderMolen, Microsoft MVP ------------------------------------------------ "Kelly Greene" wrote in message ...

Since there's no mention it updated to SP1, apparently it hasn't. It's set to auto-update. --------------------------------------- "Gary VanderMolen" wrote in message ...
