Creating a live.com email address is not hard at all. We will tell you everything about it in this article. The Windows Live brand got discontinued back in August 2012. Microsoft phased out the live domain after the release of Windows 8 to its manufacturers. Therefore, you can no longer create live.com email addresses.

What is live.com email?

Before we dive deep in this step by step plan on how you can create a live.com email address we need to know what is live.com exactly.

Live.com is the predecessor of Outlook and Hotmail and is made to sent and receive emails. As a replacement, Microsoft now has @Outlook and @Hotmail emails to facilitate its users.

Since live.com is no more applicable, therefore, in this article, we’ll discuss how you can make an email address using Outlook.com and Hotmail.com domain.

How to create a live.com email using @outlook.com address

  • Open Outlook.live.com in your web browser.
  • Click on the “Create Free Account” option, which is located at the bottom right-hand side corner of the screen.

  • Signup.live.com will open in the same tab.
  • In the blank space, make an email ID you desire. (1)
  • On the right side, select @outlook.com from the drop-down menu. (2)
  • Now click next. (3)

  • Type the password you want to set up for your account.
    • Make sure you remember the password (better to note it down somewhere).
    • You can also select the box “show password” to make sure you filled in the password you wanted. With clicking on this checkbox you can see your password
    • Make sure that the password has at least 8 characters and contains uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers and symbols for your own safety. This is also permitted by Microsoft. For example a password like this: Insidenetwork!9.

  • Enter your second name in the second blank space below the first name. (2)
  • Click next to continue. (3)

    • Select your country or region from the drop-down menu. (1)
    • Enter your birthdate comprising your birth month, date, and year. (2)
    • Click next to proceed. (3)fill in country and birthdate

 

  • A CAPTCHA will appear, enter that, and then click “Next.” You will be asked to do 4 tasks. You need to do them all correctly to go further to the next step.
    • If the CAPTCHA is unclear to you, click on “New” to request a new CAPTCHA.
    • If you’re still unable to decipher the CAPTCHA, you can request an “Audio”.

  • Once all the steps are complete, you’ll be automatically sent to your new account.

How to create a live.com email using @hotmail.com address

Creating a hotmail address works the same as creating an Outlook email address. The only difference is that you select “Hotmail” in stead of “Outlook”. 

  • Open Outlook.live.com in your Chrome or Firefox web browser.
  • At the bottom right-hand side of the corner, you’ll find the “Create Free Account” option; click on it.
  • You’ll be directed to Signup.live.com in the same tab.
  • In the new email field, enter your preferred email address.
  • On the right side, select @hotmail.com from the drop-down menu.

  • Click “Next” to continue making your account.
  • On the Create Password page, create a password for your account.
    • Don’t forget this password at all (better note down on your PC or mobile).
  • Enter your first name in the first provided field.
  • Write your second name in the next provided field.
  • Click next to proceed.
  • On your “What’s Your Birth Date” page, select your country or region from the drop-down menu.
  • Now enter your birthdate comprising your birth month, date, and year, and click next.
  • A challenge will appear known as CAPTCHA. Enter it and then click “Next.”
    • If the CAPTCHA is unclear to you, click on “New” to request a new CAPTCHA.
    • If you’re still unable to decipher the CAPTCHA, you can request an “Audio.”
  • You’ll now automatically be logged in to your new account with the @hotmail.com domain.

Wrapping up on how you can create your live.com email address

Either you create an email address using @Outlook.com or @Hotmail.com, you’ll always be redirected to Outlook.com to send and receive the emails. It is important to note that Outlook.com has replaced Live.com email domains and does not further entertain it.

If you have an old live.com email address, then don’t worry: it will still log in. However, you cannot make a new one using @Live.com anymore.

So now you know how to create a live.com email address for your own benefits.

Whether you’re using @Outlook.com or @Hotmail.com email, you can log in to your Windows PC conveniently.
