There is obviously a problem which has been announced. Many users are reporting "sorry there seems to be a problem with Hotmail...". I can only suggest you report it on the status page. If enough users do this they may escalate the issue

Looks like instead of answering my question you gave me a page to vent myself. I just want to access my e-mails for the last 3+ weeks!

I am using the latest version of Explored in my widows 7. I may have not made myself clear. I have no problem using my current Hotmail.com account. I get & send my mail fine. I just want to get a new (second) hotmail.com address without having to add Windows 10, msn, one note, G-mail, etc. I'm getting such a runaround.
