Inadvertantly removed my my.msn homepage

Asked Feb 5, 2009, 10:10 PM — 5 Answers
I was cleaning up some of my homepage topics ie. Weather and stock market info etc. And inadvertantly clicked on a remove button that immediately removed my homepage. I did a system restore thinking that it would restore the setings before I did that little trick. I apparently was wrong as nothing I have done since then has returned it.

I was able to make some changes to a msn page but I got to the stage I wanted to sae it I got an error message saying the internet was not available try again later only to get the same message all over again.

Has anyone had this kind of a problem or know how I can restore the link to my.msn.com to come up with my original page?

I have no problem getting to my.msn homepage but it isn't what I had fixed it up to look like. I used to have msn.com come up when I clicked on the IE icon but changed it all when I signed up on msn.com to be able to go to my.msn.com with my personally configured page. Now when I try to change or even delete something on my.msn homepage I get a "Network not available try later message and it won't allow any action`at all.

Are you signed into account - not that familiar with msn as far as their homepage setting go

See if they have a conact link andsee if any email support may be avail

Hopefully someone here will be able to lend some assistance

Yes I am signed into the my.msn account I set up. Thanks for the response. It's a lot more than a person can get from MSN help desk without paying them an inordinate fee for an answer.

I tried to e-mail their help desk and since they are going to cease support for windows XP I don't think there will be too many replies witihout paying for it.
