I installed windows 8.1 off a USB recently and i cant sign into my Yahoo account, i tried Gmail, Outlook with the Hotmail account, and nothing has worked, I dont think i can ever see my mail ever again on Windows 8! also Skype wont sign in so i hope you fix it.

    Hi,

    Don't use 8/8.1 at all.

    Skype has been retired and is no more.
