How can I change back from Outlook.com to Hotmail? I like Hotmail a lot better. Thanks for your help.
To be brief, you can’t. Microsoft switched all of its web-based mail accounts permanently to Outlook.com. This includes Hotmail, MSN addresses and Live Mail addresses and there’s no turning back.

I’m afraid your options are to give yourself time to get accustomed to the new Outlook.com, use an e-mail client like Outlook to download the messages to your computer or switch to another web-based e-mail provider like Yahoo! or Gmail.

Thanks for the tip.Like most people I’m very displeased with outlook.
I,too,am disgusted with this new outlook crap and have lost contact with just about everyone of my favorite things that I enjoyed reading, writing, looking at, …I just do not see what is better about it. All I see is a great deal of confused people who have lost their information concerning websites. I feel like I’m starting all over again…which I don’t like.
