Windows Live sign-in error
Morning all,
Starting up my Windows 7 Professional work laptop yesterday and today has thrown up the following error message. The worry is it appears to be for
"Windows Live", which I don't have or use...!
Visiting the suggested URL throws up another error message saying "Services not available".
Can anyone suggest what is wrong and perhaps a solution?
For reference if I click the OK button the first error message goes away and I see no further errors.

My laptop suddenly stopped working, invalid licence error... I have to hit f8 now and boot from last known good configuration it looks like Microsoft
are trying to kill off anyone that does not want to be on the cloud.
I do not even get the option to use the code... Plenty of people on the Internet with legal copies have the same thing happening.

At work we all have PCs or laptops bought with Windows 7 pre-installed on them. Some older PCs still run Windows XP and we have one running Windows
10. We have our own servers for Exchange email, data etc. Last year we took up using a cloud based CRM system (OnePage). For the next 2 years we
simply won't have a fast enough internet connection to migrate everything to the cloud - much as we might like to!
If it really were Microsoft trying to force peoples hands I'd be surprised - I guess you never know though.
