Open Hotmail

Do you own a Hotmail account? If you do, one of the main chores you'll need to know is how to open your browser to the Hotmail website. You'll find the details in this article.

Steps

1. Locate and type the Hotmail website's URL into the address bar of your browser, and press ↵ Enter when finished. Most browsers have their address bar at the very top. The Hotmail address can be typed in as www.hotmail.com.
   • Due to the recent acquisition of the new Outlook.com web address, you'll be prompted to enter the Outlook.com page. Your Hotmail credentials will work there too, but things are just a little different under the skin after that.
2. Type the appropriate login credentials to sign in. These include your username and password.
3. Click the "Sign In" button to sign in and open your Hotmail mail account. You will eventually arrive at your Hotmail mailbox where you can view all your mail, or manage your account.

Tips

• Although Hotmail is most known by its main name, over the last 5 years, it has gotten a major name upgrade. It's now become part of the Windows Live system and now has become called Windows Live Hotmail. The account you are dealing with is not just called a Windows Live Hotmail account, but more properly called a Windows Live ID.
