I have Windows 10.  I just got the PC in Dec.  I had no problem with any of my email account until Jan.3, 2016.  That is the last date that my mail will show.  

I have not been able to find ANY  solution to fix this.

When I go the the start menu and click on the tile for mail my machine just spins.

When I click on the task bar mail shortcut, I see the mail from Jan 3.

After an hour of letting the machine spin, i now get the message on my Outlook that it is not synced.

Can someone help?

My Inbox will not Update.  I did recently clear my cache, not sure if that has anything to do with it.  Anyone know what i can do?
Edit: I actually just turned on my Samsung Tablet and some new email were there on the home page.  I started to scroll and they disappeared.  This is very strange.

January 8th is the last date for any email in my outlook account, available for viewing on my hp laptop.  I am able to view, send and respond to emails on Android and iOS devices.

The PROBLEM appears to be Microsoft Windows 10 related.

NOT date and time settings.

NOT a user error!

MS Windows 10 error!!!

Hi Susan,

We suggest that you create a new and separate thread regarding your concern to avoid confusion. This thread is old and was previously resolved. There has been a lot of changes over the past years and the solutions shared here might have worked for others, but may not work for you.

Regards.
