WinMail.exe

Posted by admin on Nov 17th, 2006

When I close Windows Mail and try to reopen it, I get an error message that my Windows Mail is already running. I then have to go onto task manager and end WinMail.exe which is for unknown reason still runnin, then I can start Windows Mail. This problem only happens after my system wakes up from sleep.

If not, simply restore the ON setting.

    Thanks for the reply, but I don't have HYBRID SLEEP as an option, when I click the + at sleep, I get SLEEP AFTER then when I click the + on that one it give me a time to change, no other options after that. "dev" wrote:

    /Pat/ said: Yes, that can be the case. NOT using SLEEP mode, but instead allowing monitor and hard drive to shut down at an interval of your choosing may be an alternative, though not as energy efficient. Worth a test, to see if it affects the problem.
