Bring back Shared Folders
I know you took them out for a reason or whatever. And I know that there is Live Sync. But it took me forever to get my dad to use Shared Folders, and I don't look forward to teaching him something new.
Please integrate Live Sync with Messenger in a way that is similar to how Shared Folders used to work. I believe this has been done with WLPG to sync photos?? I know that we are limited to 20 Synced Folders which won't be enough for most people's (more...)

Allow Linux users to access the full hotmail
Whenever I visit Hotmail, I get the light mode. I use Firefox. It's even more annoying when I use Midori (a WebKit browser) and an error saying I should use a different browser, when it uses the exact same engine as safari!
Allow Linux users to access the full mode.

Allow custom order of banner links
The Home Profile People Mail Photos More MSN links cannot be customized by the user.
Because different WL audiences have different agendas, you're never going to satisfy everyone with a single standard. Allow each user to define what appears on the "top 5" of their own WL banner. Anything else drops into the More category (more...)

Screensaver won't start when Windows Live Messenger is running
I set the Bubbles screensaver to start after 1 minute, but when Windows Live Messenger is running, no matter how long I leave my computer inactive, the screensaver doesn't kick in, nor does any of the power saving settings for that matter!
Fix the problem.

Calendar and Contacts - separate Programs
I have to open Windows Live Mail to access my Calendar and Contacts.
Separate the programs out as they were in Vista. I don't use Live Mail and don't want to open a mail program to see my contacts.

[XP only] Cannot save any changes to pictures
Everytime you modify an image using "Edit" in Windows Live Photo Gallery you cannot save its changes. (Affects Windows XP only as far as I can tell)
You can rotate the image though but you cannot modify Saturation, crop the image, change (more...)
FIX IT!!!!!!!!!!
Note: Affects Windows XP only as far as I can tell!

[Spaces] Decouple the blog from WL Spaces
WL Spaces is required to host a blog. If photos, favorites, and other lists are not inherently part of WL Spaces anymore, then why is your blog?
The blog component should be decoupled from WL Spaces and reorganized under WL Profile and/or SkyDrive, the same way that Photos has be reorganized. Multiple blog support should be added. A link should also be added to the left side of my Profile page (more...)
