I need your help. I completed the upgrade installation of Win 7, and all updates including SP1, but every time I open Windows Live mail I get the following error message:
(I choose Ignore, and have no further problems until the next time I open Win Live Mail)
Assertion Failed: Abort = Quit, Retry = Debug, Ignore = Continue

WRN: assembly binding logging is turned OFF.
To enable assembly bind failure logging, set the registry value
[HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Fusion!EnableLog] (DWORD) to 1.
Note: There is some performance penalty associated with assembly

To turn this feature off, remove the registry value
[[HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Fusion!EnableLog].
