How to recover .bak files in Outlook Express on another computer.

I have Windows XP and Outlook Express on a new computer and I also have the old Outlook Express files .bak (Inbox.bak, Sent.bak, etc.) from an old computer that is no longer usable. I copied them from the trash. How can I recover the old .bak files and place them in the files of OE on the new computer store?

I don't speak of OE v.6 and XP service pack 2

Thank you!

You can manually import the bak, such files as described here for individual dbx files: www.oehelp.com/backup.aspx#imp1

If you have the entire message store to another instance of OE that copy on the desktop and check file properties to make sure that they are not read-only.  And make sure you folders.dbx is present.  Then you can go to file | Import | Messages and point to this directory and import of the old message store.  If the import does not work, or you do not folders.dbx, then you will need to use the manual to import the method above, or DBXpress (www.oehelp.com/DBXpress/), which will extract the messages as eml files, which can be imported in a number of other programs, but also the OE.

    Thank you

    You must close OE and then delete the oldquotation.dbx file.  Change the name again.  Create a folder called Q1.  Then open it once.  Then close OE.  Then, delete the file Q1.dbx.  Then with OE still closed, rename the file bak to Q1.dbx.  Then open OE.

    How to send 31MB. WMV file using Outlook Express 6 on Windows XP?

    If it is possible please provide step by step procedure.

    All attachments add about 33% size thanks to the encoding. This makes your 31MB file around 41 ~ 42 MB. I doubt that your ISP/mail server allows something that big, and of course, I would not be the recipient of a message that size.

    Create a YouTube account and put it there. You can make public or private and provide the link to the recipient.

    You should know what type of program is supposed to be used to open this file - and this program must be installed on your computer.

    What kind of file is it?  What is the file extension (3 or 4 characters after the point)?

    If you know what type of program is needed and you already have this program installed, the best way to create the association is

    • find a file with the extension in question
    • Right click on it
    • Select "open with > choose program.
    • Select the correct application of the list
    • Check the box "always use the program selected to open this type of file"
    • Click OK.

    If the program you need is not in the list, click on the "Browse" button and locate the program exe file in C:\Program Files.

    Outlook express content of some files went

    A user to our small business reports that she one day noticed that the contents of its files to Outlook Express disappeared.  Records are intact, but the messages have disappeared.  Strangely, what happened to half of its files; the content in the other half is still there.

    She uses Outlook Express 6.
    Suggestions?

    In addition to comments of Bruce, likely OE compacted messages and in doing so, he probably wiped out the where they are absent.  Check your Inbox and message store bak files which are backups dbx files prior to compaction (see www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#2).  If you cannot find the bak files, then you will probably use the extract of the service drive of my DBXpress program (see www.oehelp.com/DBXpress/).

    Hello

    Does anyone know how to recover deleted files from mysafe?

    I'm not 100% sure but I think that the data in this folder will not be deleted to bin recycled initially, but they will be removed immediately.
    How recovery them? Good question?

    Try to find some third party applications that can scan the HARD disk for deleted files. The point is that it will work if the FAT (File allocation table) is deleted only. This means that the file is on the HARD disk, but the disk HARD doesn t know where exactly.
    Hmmm... It is not so easy.
