How do i delete my inbox in windows live mail

Deleting your inbox in Windows Live Mail is not recommended, as it will permanently remove all your emails and contacts. However, if you still want to do so, here are the steps:

Warning: Before proceeding, make sure you have backed up your important emails and contacts to an external storage device or cloud storage service, such as Outlook.com or Google Drive.

Method 1: Delete the Inbox folder

  1. Open Windows Live Mail.
  2. Click on the "Inbox" folder in the left-hand navigation pane.
  3. Right-click on the "Inbox" folder and select "Delete" from the context menu.
  4. Confirm that you want to delete the folder by clicking "Yes" in the pop-up dialog box.

Method 2: Empty the Trash folder

  1. Open Windows Live Mail.
  2. Click on the "Trash" folder in the left-hand navigation pane.
  3. Select all the emails in the Trash folder by pressing Ctrl+A.
  4. Right-click on the selected emails and select "Delete" from the context menu.
  5. Confirm that you want to permanently delete the emails by clicking "Yes" in the pop-up dialog box.

Method 3: Use the "Empty Trash" feature

  2. Click on the "Tools" menu and select "Empty Trash" from the drop-down menu.
  3. Confirm that you want to permanently delete the emails in the Trash folder by clicking "Yes" in the pop-up dialog box.
