I use Windows Live Mail on my Acer Netbook with XP with no trouble.

On my new Acer Desktop with Windows 8 I set up 'Groups' or 'Categories' but the contacts I put in won't stay there. It worked initially but hasn't for some time. I've completely re-set each 'Group' several times but the same thing happens. Help please!

Have you tried re-installing Live mail? It could be that it has become corrupted. Have you considered using the mail app that comes with windows 8?
