• Remove a pop-up for compacting messages in Outlook Express 6.

  I was doing a pop-up asking me if I want to compact messages in Outlook Express in order to free disk space. It's very boring and very frequent. I don't know how to do it go away. I am able to get rid of him, and if so, how?

  As mentioned above, it will be in the control panel.
   
  In the case of Windows Search, you must be told to stop indexing OE.
   
  Windows Search. Set Desktop Search Options:
  http://www.Microsoft.com/Australia/windows/desktopsearch/search/options.mspx
   
  In the control panel. Indexing Options. Change. Clear the check box for Outlook Express.
   
  If you see the prompt again, you may leave compact once to clear the meter in the registry. It won't cause any harm.
   
  *********************
   
  But, also, you said that you have modified the registry to 0. Have you ever he let compact once?

• New messages in Outlook Express do not appear in my Inbox.

  When I connect to Outlook Express it shows receive mail down when I have mail.  When he made x number shows new messages but they do not ALL see the in the box.  No idea where they're going or if I can get back them?

  Thank you

  original title: OUTLOOK EXPRESS

  All messages are actually downloaded? If you do an another send/receive manually, the same messages to download again? If you are not sure, check your server Webmail site.
   
  Check also other files, especially not with one more sigh at the front.
   
  If you have message rules, temporarily uncheck all.
   
   
  The next step is to create a new identity, but to see how it goes first.

• I lost 16 months of emails when I click "Compact Messages" in Outlook Express - Help!

  I searched on the internet and made the following to address my problem-

  . Working offline with Outlook Express

  . Open Recycle Bin on the Windows desktop

  . The '.bak' file located I wanted back

  . Clicked on the file '.bak' with the right button of the mouse

  . Restore selected in the menu

  BUT now, I can't locate the file in Windows Explorer and open the folder that's in.  How can I find the file - I did a search for all files and folders, and anything else that is listed, but it comes up with zero results.  HELP PLEASE

  In addition to Bruce's response, go to tools | Options | Advanced | Maintenance | Storage folder and that will show you the location of the message store.  Copy to this location.

  Then go to control panel | Folder options | View and uncheck Hide extensions of known file types and check the option to show hidden files and folders (the message store and its files are hidden).

  Then, open Windows Explorer and paste it into the location you copied into the address bar and then you should find the dbx and bak files.

  Then see www.oehelp.com/backup.aspx#imp1 to re-import the bak file in OE.  If it doesn't matter, then you may need my DBXpress (www.oehelp.com/DBXpress/) program to retrieve messages.

• We clicked on "Compact messages" in Outlook Express and 6 months of messages disappeared! Any ideas as to the why, where they could be, and how they can be recovered?

  We watched in 'Deleted items' and they weren't there.  We also "restored" the bin "recycling" and even did not see them return.

  Hi James,

  Thanks for posting. Please, try the following.

  • Make sure that Outlook Express is not working.
  • Open the Recycle Bin on your Windows desktop .
  • Locate the files ".bak" corresponding to Outlook Express folders that you want to retrieve.
    • The '.bak' file will be named as the folder in Outlook Express.
    • To restore a folder called "Archive", look for "Archive.bak", for example.
  • Click on the file '.bak' with the right button of the mouse.
  • Select restore from the menu.
  • Locate the file in Windows Explorer and open the folder that contains.
  • Drag and drop the file ".dbx" corresponding to the Outlook Express folder, you want to get back to your Office .
  • In the Outlook Express store folder, click the '.bak' file to be retrieved using the right button of the mouse.
  • Select Rename from the menu.
  • Change the file extension ".bak" in ".dbx".
    • If the file was called "Archive.bak", for example, make sure that it is named "Archive.dbx" now.
  • Open Outlook Express.
  • If your emails have been recovered, remove the ".dbx" file you moved to the desktop .

  Also, if you cannot find the files in the above location search your computer *. Bak

  I hope this helps!

  General precautions for Outlook Express:
   
  Do not archive mail in the receipt or sent items box. Create your own user-defined folders and move messages you want to put in them. Empty the deleted items folder daily. Although the dbx files have a theoretical capacity of 2 GB, I recommend all a 300 MB max for less risk of corruption.

• to open page dialoge box comes several times

  I have a problem with a pop up dialoge box.  I created the script that, at the opening of the page, you will be asked if this is the first letter or 2nd letter.  A field will display or hide the base on this answer

  This occurs after the other page dialog box open code that checks if there are blank fields and mask models if these fields are empty

  The issue I'm having is that the box pop up asking the user to choose the first or second box - tick the box staff and click OK

  But then the box appears the 2nd time

  While they scroll to the bottom of the page to check one another - the first dialog occurs again

  And Yes, is the code to the open page only once

  It does not stop the form of work, it's just frustrating

  Yes. When you create a script of the doc level, it automatically generates a

  Statement of function with the specified name. You must remove that

  before you paste your code into the window.

• A strange thing happens when I try to send a message from Outlook Express

  Whenever I try to send a message from Outlook Express to my Yahoo email account, the dialog box will move immediately to the status bar.  Is not that bad, but it seems too far on the right side of the screen, and I right-click on the status bar to maximize.  Any ideas on why this is happening?

  Can click you the title bar when it is on the right side and then move it to the left (try also the arrows).  If you can move it and then close it, then it should open in the center of the next time.

  bastyav,
  We use the exact and some error message in more detail on the issue.  This problem occurs with any file on the disk or only some of them?  You are logged as administrator?  Has anything changed recently (hardware or software)?

  The first thing I would say to run a Virus scan and malware.  If you do not have an antivirus program, then you can get one here: http://www.microsoft.com/Security_essentials/

  If there are no problems found then not try the following steps:
  Run the following commands.

• MS Photo Gallery, how can I activate the "do not show this again" when the dialog box appears whenever I try to download a picture to another location?

  The key is that you have to allow this program through your windows firewall.

  Go to your look for the windows Firewall Control Panel,

  There should be a list to allow a program through windows firewall, look at the top left.

  If you feel safe doing this, vlc is not one that I would feel safe with, but to you, it has a function to browse to find the program to be added to your trusted list or access through your firewall.

  Still, it may give you a warning but could release the message?

• Import e-mail messages from Outlook Express in Windows Live Mail?

  I have recently moved to a new PC with Win7 and have been using Live Mail - more often with success, I thought with the exception of one or two faults, but I'll probably post a question on those.
  On the audit of my old PC today, when I open Oulook Express have been downloaded more than 100 emails that have not appeared in Live Mail - dating back to the time I went.
  I tried to export these messages of OE, put it on a USB key and then import in LM LM do not seem to recognize them - these are the dbx files. Suggestions anyone please?
  Thank you in advance.
  Jeff.

  If both computers use the same e-mail address, you must do this to get the messages on both.
   
  On both machines: tools | Accounts | Mail | Properties | Advanced - Check: leave a copy of messages on the server.
   
  On a single computer only, make sure to delete messages after X days to satisfy your allocated space that you get from your server.
