As you can see, the first option on the list displays your emails "As they arrive". That option is missing on my computers. The best I can do is "every 15 minutes". I read on one of the sites where I researched this, that some accounts are set up that way, but I don't know what to do to change it so that I will get my emails (in the Windows Mail app) as they arrive. I'm pretty sure (but I could be wrong) that I was getting messages as the arrived under Windows 8.1.
When I use my Thunderbird mail client, I do get my emails as they arrive.

Thank you for your attention Robin.
No, that is not what I am saying. I am only referring to the Mail app on the Windows Starts Screen.
I forgot how to post a picture here, so please look at the picture in this link (from another site):

I don't understand how your reply relates to my issue.
What does Windows updates have to do with with the missing option of having emails downloaded as the arrive?
