How you software on Vista windows mail

Computer took a hit of malwhere. And now it won't let me get in.keeps ask for password but still no go. How can I get rid of windows mail on vist and its beginning all over again?

You cannot reinstall Vista share.  But the issue is the message store, and you can set up a new base of messages.  All you have to do is rename the parent directory of the message store and then WinMail will implement a new.  Navigate to the location of the message storage (C:\[username]\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows mail notes that it is hidden and you must go to control panel |) Folder options | Display and enable the display of the hidden files and folders) then go up a directory and rename the directory from Windows Mail to Windows Mail old.  Then create a new directory named Windows Mail so that it replaces the former and is completely empty.  You can then start WinMail and it will act as if it had never been run.  You can also just change the value of the root to be stored in the registry in another empty directory (for example c:\winmailstore\) and WinMail will then use this directory as the message store.  Once you do this and its no longer works, you can use the file | Import | Messages and point to the old directory, or you can simply drag and drop them into folders.

See www.oehelp.com/backup.aspx#wm for background on the Organization of message store and be wary of the antivirus, which leads to corruption - see www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3 .

Also, before you reset everything, you might try to compact and repair the database and see if that fixes the problem (using www.oehelp.com/WMUtil/).

  • How can I get Vista "Windows Mail" to check mail using my connection local (LAN) internet?

    How can I get Vista "Windows Mail" to check mail using my connection local (LAN) internet?

    It allows only wants to "connect" using dial-up, wireless or wired ISP (type PPP) requiring a UID and password, of which none seem to allow me to select a LAN (ISP) simple (without a password).

    I know that the Ethernet connection works Ok, because I can use it with a standard Web browser; only the mail tool can't seem to see or use.

    Whenever I tell the Windows Mail email 'Send and receive', he wants to 'connect' for remote access or one of his three choices (listed above and direct exclusion of any connection to the local network).  It works with remote access, so once I have spend that I should be Ok. but I can't make it work directly.

    Help.

    In Windows Mail, go to select Tools, accounts, your account email, properties, connection.  It shows for the connection?  You
    should leave this setting not selected, in which case Windows Mail will use the IE connection uses.
     
    In addition, under Tools, Options, connection, the first checkbox must be checked, and the second box unchecked.
     
    If everything which withdraws, but you still have the problem, the account may be damaged.  Remove account, restart Windows Mail,.
    then recreate the account.

  • How do I set up Windows mail to work with an iphone5 in mode 'hot spot' as the internet connection.

    My internet is now via an iphone5 used as a hot spot.  How can I set up Vista "windows mail" to use with this? I've always used Windows mail when I had a high traditional rural snail speed dial and would still do that?  Thanks for any help you can offer!

    The hotspot just iPhone connects you to the Internet, the e-mail application does not really know the difference (as much as he knows, he might as well be a Starbucks WiFi at the coffee shop).

    It seems that you are properly connected to the hotspot, but that your e-mail program is not configured to download emails to iCloud.  Your hotspot is actually not related to that.  The mail app will download mail, regardless of how you connect to the web.

    To set up your e-mail to iCloud program, you'll want to go to the account options in the e-mail software and add your iCloud account.

    While you are on this page, do not forget knowledge more under the "Add account, end to end", which includes images and examples to help you set up the account.

    After that, you should start getting your email into the Windows Mail program.

  • How you report results by e-mail - 8 Captivate quiz?

    How you report results by e-mail - 8 Captivate quiz?

    More info...

    .. .on the send results by e-mail?

    I know not glib, but there are essentially two approaches:

    1 figure how do a "mailto:" link that passes the information you need (partitions, etc.) to the user's email client.

    Problem A: users will need TO have a client installed messaging, like Outlook, Thunderbird, etc.

    B problem: users will see that email content, editing and will have to manually click 'send '.

    2 set up a program of mailer on a Web server that your Captivate project can 'POST' the data to.

    Problem: you need a Web server, a program of mailer and a page that will receive the posted data (PHP, JSP, ASP, .NET)

    B problem: you will need some kind of security around this script mailer or spammers surely find and use it to send their own spam stuff.

    Do you REALLY need to send by e-mail?

    May be preferable to an internal server.

  • How to remove and reset the Contacts folder / files in Vista Windows Mail

    How can I delete the Contacts in Vista - and actually reset the folder so that windows treats the files ".contact" as - good contact and no text.

    Because what was going on, I decided to try to start from scratch - I just copied all the files in the folder of contacts to a archive and deleted all the files in the contacts folder.

    From Windows Mail - I am capable of was able to use the tool 'Add to contacts' and the Contact form (properties) dialog happens - but if I open the Contacts folder directly (Windows or Windows Mail 'button'), I get a window of the typical Explorer with a newlt created contact list (for example there are 6 in there now all created from Windows Mail) - if I try to open an existing contact - it opens in the Notepad - text - garbage.  (Same problem I had)

    I've been setting up with a Contacts folder corrupted since I bought my desktop with Vista in 2008 - I think I looked into the question of import then and there is no function of CSV to import the contacts (that I could find) - and / or the inport corrupted the file - so when I open a file of contacts I get the text of the file - it opens in Notepad - and not a Contact form.

    With more than 600 contacts in there, I didn't have to manually retype all data, but it's time to bite the bullet.

    Hello PaulJMoore,

    ·         Do you have just copied the contacts in archive and did not export them?

    ·         What is the extension of the contact files you copied?

    You should try to reset the contacts folder.

    1. in Windows Explorer, navigate to the folder C:\Users\(user name) \Contacts.

    2. right click on an empty space in the main pane of the middle of the window and click Customize this folder.

    3. under the type of folder do you want, click the arrow next to the model list drop-down list.

    4. click on Contacts to select.

    NOTE: Check apply also this template to all subfolders if you want to change all subfolders in the Contacts folder to the Contacts model as well.

    5. click on OK.

    The contacts created with Windows Vista are in the format of .vlc. When you try to open them to the archived location where you saved, he would not be able to access Windows Mail to open the contacts.

    First of all try to copy all the contacts in the Contacts folder on the \Contacts C:\Users\(user name folder location).

    If this does not work, try to import all the contacts that you have saved to the location that is archived using the import option from the Windows Messaging.

    You can read this article which will give you information on how to import contacts:

  • (How) I can say the Vista Windows Mail should not be run when I click on a Mailto link: link?

    I use Gmail for my email...

    .. But if I click on a Mailto link: link, Vista (is there a dull moment, & then) running Windows Mail.
    I don't want to do that...
    (I would be happy if he just said there is no set program to manage this type of link (although optimal would be running (or just transfer me to the operation) Gmail).)
    .. but when I tried to turn it off, it wasn't one of the options.

  • Recover Contacts and emails of crushed Vista/Windows mail by car

    I was using a laptop with Vista and Windows Mail.  The laptop is dead, but I was able to recover the hard disk and connect to another computer via the usb port.  The intermediate computer has XP and Outlook Express or Windows Mail options.  How can I recover my emails and contacts I used in Windows Mail?  In the past when I change computers I export and import the new email client.  Because I can't open Windows Mail, I don't have this option.

    Thanks for your suggestions.

    Any questions about WLM should be asked in the forum dedicated to www.windowslivehelp.com you can ask about contacts there also.

    I don't use it.
