I infer you are saying that you had done the steps in that KB
article, and that did not change the login inside Money. It makes me
wonder what the purpose of that article is.

Make extra backups before proceeding.If you want to remove the
Windows Live ID from a file you may have to turn off background
banking at
[M07]Tools-> Settings-> ReceiveAccountUpdatesFromMSNMoneyMyAccounts
and then at File-> PasswordManager you can choose to remove your
WindowsLiveID. To remove a conventional password, see
File-> PasswordManager.

You could then put your new Windows Live ID back on the file if you
like.

Cal,

Thank you for your response. I apologize for not making my point clearly.
I've already changed the email address in my passport login.

My problem is that my MS Money 2007 remembers the old email address for
login and keeps prompting it everytime i start the program. So I end up
typing my email address all over again everytime I want to open up my Money
file.

My question is how to I remove the old email login from Money file?

How to change your .NET Passport sign-in e-mail address

Before starting it, I would make a copy of my file and remove the
Passport on the copy. That could serve as a backup to something
going wrong. I get cautious at time.

Hi,

I'm using Money 2007 Premium. I recently changed my passport login email
address. Money remembers my old email login. Even though I type the new one
to login, it always promts the old email. How do I make Money remember my new
passport login email? To further clarify, I'm not talking about the password.
It's the email address I'm talking about.
