Yes only then.
If i understand properly, you have deleted all RSS Feeds and still get the error?

ASKER
yes that's true 
Your pic is from Deleted items. What about All feeds (and unreaded feeds)?
ASKER
apologies for that goof up, but it's the same in All Feeds & Unread Feeds, can attach screenshot if required
No need AMITKHER. :-)

yes please do it.
ASKER
tried repair then un-installed & re-installed, still getting the same message
How long do you have this problems?
ASKER
i think for about 10 days now but not very sure of exact date
Can you do a system restore before 10 days?
ASKER
As i'm not sure of the exact date/time system restore wouldn't be a safe enough option in my understanding
Sorry i was busy because work.
1) Download Revo Uninstaller Trial:
http://www.revouninstaller.com/download-professional-version.php
(Not the Free version! Because this version is old.)
2) Uninstall Windows Live Mail
3) After you will be asked to remove Registry files & Folders. Please do it
4) Reboot & reinstall Windows Live Mail again
Will this help?`
Awawada's option is also good. Why do you think it's not safe?
