Incoming messages not displayed correctly through Windows Live Hotmail

[enipuskas]

Hello all,

Can anybody help with this issue:

The characters in my incoming messages are not displayed correctly. I tried to reinstall it and also to adjust the coding; however, nothing has changed. I do not experience the same issue on my business laptop and even though I tried to compare the settings in both Hotmails installed, I was not able to come to a solution. Please see the attached screenshot

Thank you for your help in advance,

Eni

Hi enipuskas, welcome to 7F!

• When you say incorrectly you mean all those accents above/beside the letters. The fractions, % signs and ¬?
• Is this all incoming messages or just from certain senders?
• Has this just started?
• How long have you had your HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC?
• Is the dv6 fully updated?

I have to look back in my posts, but there was a similar problem, and it was narrowed down to incorrect encoding by the senders email system.

There could also be a conflict in language packs. Have you installed any?

For the time being you could try running: http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/1538-sfc-scannow-command-system-file-checker.html, run it at least three times even if it reports all is okay.

Exactly, I mean all those accents.
It is for all incoming messages.
I started just recently. I have the Windows Essential Hotmail installed on my company laptop and there the e-mails are displayed correctly.
I have had dv6 for some 2 years already, I guess but not sure; however, it is fully updated, I always run the updates on it.
I will definitely try your suggestions. Thank you a lot.
