Windows Live Mail has stopped working

In a new HP laptop running win7, tried to install Windows Live Mail (WLM).
Download and installation completed successfully, but unfortunately WLM never worked.
While opening the application, screen becomes grey and the message "Application has stopped working" appears on screen.

I tried to recover the application using "wlarp.exe " but with no success, and so I decided to uninstall/reinstall it. No success

I am running out of ideas.

Can anybody help me?

Thanx

have you tried right clicking the setup file and selecting 'run as administrator'?
also after it is installed try logging in with a different account (create a test one if you have to) and then using it, just to make sure it's not your account playing up

the account is member of local admins, but I will try your second though and let you know
the account is member of local admins<< i'd still give it a go using 'run as administrator'

Although I did what byfour described, I did not come up with a solution. So I tried a different software which works fine.
