Empty the deleted items folder

When I do a "right click" to empty the deleted items folder, I get the message "do you want to permanently delete the items. I select 'Yes', but the messages are not deleted.  It started just past a week ago (I think that after some Vista updates have been completed).

It seems that I had to restart my computer I fixed the database because I am now able to empty my deleted items folder.  Thanks again for your help.

    When I delete a mail from my box as planned and according to my work e-mail e-mail moves to the deleted items folder. However, when I log in the e-mail message has disappeared from deleted items and I can't get it back.

  • How to remove the elements in the "Deleted items" folder using Microsoft Windows Mail?

    This used to work, but I was not able to remove items from the deleted items folder and it takes a lot of space.  I used to be able to do it and it automatically deletes the items when I closed Windows Mail (it is always set up to do, incidentally, does not yet), but now it does not work. I've tried everything. I used the link at the top of the page coming down and clicked on "Empty Deleted Items Folder", but it does not work.

    I tried to download Windows Live Mail and it won't work on my computer.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you!

    Maybe could turn the setting and then turn again. Sometimes it works, but I wouldn't be surprised if she did not help, or if you have already tried.

    Take note of the following:

    1. I've never used only 8 years old, Windows Mail
    2. Windows Mail is not supported.

    The deleted items folder has a clean button on it? This can empty it completely. Another thing to consider is that your e-mail service can remove items deleted periodically. However, as you say, it takes place, so you can delete them manually.

    Alternatively, you can consider changing the e-mail programs. You said that Windows Live Mail did not work. You can try an older version, because I don't think not 2012 works on Vista (based on absolutely no evidence, by the way) another option to consider is Mozilla Thunderbird. If you have Microsoft Office and it includes Outlook, certainly use it.

    That's the only advice I have. If this does not help, I don't have anything else for you.

  • When I try to delete the message in the "Deleted items" folder I get an error message "some items in the folder"Deleted items"could not be deleted." year error has occurred. Any Suggestions?

    I get to see all the messages that I deleted in my "Deleted items" folder and when I try to delete the message in this folder I get an error message 'some items in the folder "Deleted items" can not be deleted.' an error has occurred.  Also when I try to delete my Inbox it won't move message from 'deleted items '.  Any suggestions?

    This is probably due to a mismatch between what is in the message store and which think that the database is in the message store.  Try to compact and repair the database and see if that fixes the problem.  See www.oehelp.com/WMUtil/

  • In Windows Mail, I can't empty my deleted items folder.

    When I try to delete a message or a certain number of messages or view the message, I get the dialogue following "Windows Mail encountered an unexpected problem for the display of this message. Search your computer lack of memory or low disk space and try again. »

    I tried

    1) highlighting of messages and pressing the delete key

    (2) using the command empty deleted items in the Edit menu

    (3) using the Ctrl A to select messages and Shift + Delete

    (4) using the red x button in the toolbar. Same result any mode of approach.

    Anyone else had this?

    Try to compact and repair the database (see www.oehelp.com/WMUtil/).  Also, make sure that this antivirus is does not interfere with Windows Mail (see www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3) and make sure you have the latest updates to Vista, including Service Pack 2.

  • How can I access a message in the DELETED items folder when I only know the number of the message?

    BitDefender quotes only the number of message when identifying an infected file.

    On a serious level, have this cold virus in a glass vial in a particular case in a locked box to worry. The same can be said of any anti virus programs anti-virus detects in your trash.

    It's just a text document in a remote location that you have already dealt with. If you open it you already have and probably have. Even if you take no action, the virus in this message will not cause a problem. He will sit in it locked box until tinitarry said you ' empty the trash and compact the folders ' is certainly not something to waste your time on and acts as cl; dare to a false positive you can get.
