Deleting items sent from Windows Mail

• loss of the contents of the 'sent items' folder in windows mail

  Somehow all my emails sent in the 'sent items' folder of windows mail have been dumped. It's the second time that this has happened almost two years, I've been using vista. I checked to make sure that "show all messages" is accused in the "current view" for this folder. What could have caused this? These messages are recoverable? I often see messages sent from various pieces of information and would like to have them back.

  I suggest you go after that each file previous e-mail from the Windows directory where they are stored (and not only the sent items folder) and bring them into a separate file.  Then open with your e-mail program to access the sent items folder that it contained - but I now see that Windows Mail does save all emails in a file separated as it happens with Outlook using a PST file to store emails, but rather to the separate folderr, but I think they can be stored as .eml files as well as in folders so it is still possilble).  I read what follows in another post: "Windows Mail stores mail in files .eml, a file for each message, more more information about messages came together in a single file over (sorry, I don't remember his name)." I think that there is also a file for each folder. All these files are, by default, hidden - which means that you must activate the search for hidden and system files when looking for them. "I don't know for certain if this is accurate or if it will help, but it can mean that snapshots might work if you go after types of file using Windows Explorer and not Windows Mail.  But I think that one of the following products will work better (and faster) since some seem to be capable of managing entire folders at the same time.

  Here are a number of free file recovery programs that may be able to help you.  Try them in the suggested order.  For this you will need to at least know the name of the folder and perhaps file names (or least their extensions - although in some cases that is perhaps not necessary).  I am not sure if these will work with Windows Messaging files, but I think that it's worth it to check a few is:

  http://www.watchingthenet.com/recover-deleted-files-folders-in-Windows-with-free-undelete-utility.html (try this one first because it says it can recover entire folders and then you do not have to know the names of files)

  http://www.SnapFiles.com/freeware/system/fwdatarecovery.html (try Recuva second - it is the best for general file recovery and can also operate in this case).

  http://www.SnapFiles.com/get/DiskDigger.html (if you wan't to keep trying, try this next.)  If it doesn't work, the chances of the any of these work programmes is very thin but you can try as much as you want).

  Here is a commercial program which claims can be done, but it costs $99: http://www.diskinternals.com/mail-recovery/.

  Here's another commercial program that costs $69: http://www.vistafilerecovery.com/email-recovery.

  Here's another commercial program that costs $50: http://www.emailadept.com/Windows-Mail-Recovery.htm.

  Here's another commercial program that costs $40: http://www.tech-pro.net/windows-mail-recovery.html.

  I hope that one of the free programs can help, but if not, then I hope one of the commercial products helps if you want to spend money on recovery.  I don't recommend commercial products - I don't know any one of them and just offer them as an option.  Most include a free trial where you can see what you are able to get it back before you actually buy it so the risk in these cases is minimal - but I'm not entirely sure how they will interact with your system - once again, I only offer them upward in option and you should use them at your own risk.  Regiarding all of the 3rd party software, Microsoft does not recommend this product and you install and use at your own risk.

  Honestly, I hope that you are able to recover your lost emails using one of the above programs.

  Good luck!

• Importer e-mail and addresses from Windows Mail in windows.old to Outlook 2007 in the new Windows 7

  Installed Windows 7 on a laptop last night.
  Old system: Vista & Windows Mail
  New system: Windows 7 Ultimate (64) & Outlook 2007

  Prior to installation, we have saved copies of records of e-mail and address books for the two users on a disk partition.  These same files are also still available in windows.old.

  Import in Outlook 2007 feature, I cannot select a directory where the old files/email address. He just made a kind of research and can't find anything.
  I wish that prospects to find them and convert a PST file but can't seem to make it work. I tied each combination in the functionality of Outlook 'import' and even tried to drag the old emails in the outlook Inbox (just create a new email with the .eml attachment file)

  What should I install Windows mail, that he could recognize the old addresses / and then inport to Outlook?  Maybe then Outlook will look for them in their actual location?

  A little frustrated...

  How did your question related to Windows Update, Al?

  You cannot import data from Windows Mail directly in Outlook. See...

  How TO migrate [Windows mail] Outlook (when you have only the message store files)
     http://www.HOWTO-Outlook.com/HOWTO/migratefromoewlm.htm#FILES_ONLY

  In your case, you must first download/install Windows LIVE Mail and then import data from Windows Mail in this e-mail client. After that, you can EXPORT data from Windows LIVE Mail to Outlook (compared to import the data into Outlook).

  Yes, this is all very confusing. Adding to the confusion:

  1. you must set Windows LIVE Mail as your default for mail in CUSTOM (<>) item Set Program Access and computer by default in Win7 before any function send to or MailTo will become available.

  2. you will find general support for all e-mail Win7 Clients in this forum: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/w7network/threads

  I move the file from my old PC which took place with Vista on a new computer running with Win 10 where I have Windows Live Mail is installed.  When I try to copy the files from Windows Mail on Vista on a USB key I get the message "you are about to copy this file without its properties".  After studying this issue on the forums, a proposed solution was to reformat the drive in NTFS format, I did.  This does not solve the problem.  Any suggestions?  Would it be OK in this case to ignore the message and copy the file without its properties?

  a. open Windows Contacts by clicking on the Start button, all programs, and then clicking Windows Contacts.
  b. on the toolbar, click on export and then click on the CSV format.

  The following versions of Microsoft Outlook are fully supported on Windows 7;

  • Outlook 2003
  • Outlook 2007
  • Outlook 2010 (when it came out)

  It is recommended to always update your version of Outlook directly after installation to take care of any question of incompatibility which have been corrected.

  Previous versions
  Another version of Outlook is not supported on Windows 7. Although you may install it, any compatibility issues is not corrected. For example;

  • Outlook 2002/XP works on Windows 7, but it has the same problems remember password when using Windows Vista.
  • Outlook 2000 cannot be installed in Internet Mail Only Mode (IMO) and must be installed in company/workgroup (CW Mode) Mode to prevent a mistake wab.dll.

• cannot print or transfer mail from windows mail

  When I try to print an email from windows mail in vista I get an error message saying "unexpected call to method or property access" also cannot transfer emails

  Any ideas?

  What happens when you try to send email?

  Search for antivirus and other program interventions in WinMail.  See www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3

  Also try to compact and repair the database and see if that fixes things (see www.oehelp.com/WMUtil/).

  For the print issue, you can print from IE?  WinMail uses the IE print engine, in order to check that.

• Cannot send or receive messages from windows mail. Get error 10060, error Ox800CCCOE socket.

  Cannot send messages from windows mail, can receive mail

  This account worked until recently? If so, it is probably due to an update of your antivirus software. Completely uninstall and restart. Now, do a custom installation and uncheck e-mail scanning when it is offered.

  Analysis of electronic mail is a redundant layer of protection that devours the CPUs, slows down sending and receiving and causes a multitude of problems such as time-outs, account setting changes and has even been responsible for the loss of messages. Your up-to-date A / V program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For more information, see:
