Just 3 people in the family using the same computer, all using Windows Live Mail quite happily. Unfortunately I am unable to convince the other 2 to backup their contacts and Emails regularly.
When we used Windows Mail under Vista I wrote a simple Batch File to use ROBOCOPY to copy their Contacts and Emails to an External Drive, but since moving to Win 7 with Windows Live Mail I get "Access Denied" for all other users when I do a copy. I think this is down to UAC/Junction points. Turning UAC off doesn't work and in any case is dangerous unless I can turn it on and off in a batch job.
Is there a way that I can automate Contact and Email copying/exporting for Windows Live Mail users besides my own (I have full admin authority).
I use Acronis TI2011 but this doesn't cope with Windows Live Mail backup at all - a known shortcoming!
I suppose I could ban the wife and daughter from using WLM as one option!!
