• My main computer crashed and the data has been retrieved from the hard drive, including all of my Outlook Express dbx files

  I'll provide too much information because those of us who are computer knuckleheads think that everything is important since it is a mystery to us.

  My main computer crashed and the data has been retrieved from the hard drive, including all of my Outlook Express dbx files. There are four years of e-mails in these files and critical that I be able to open them.

  My only working computer running XP. It has Outlook Express is installed on it and was once used for e-mail, but not more and not implemented with my ISP to send or receive if it matters at all. Other that the sending and receiving of all the other functions of the OE program appear to be operational.

  I have read many explanations on how to open the files dbx on different sites - all is completely different and most seem well beyond my skill level.

  There is a fairly painless way to open these files? I don't want to try anything that could damage them. Please... any solution please guide me through in its simplest form - I am 64 but pretend you are explaining the process to a 7 year old. Yes, I'm that lame!

  Sorry for writing a novel and thank you to all who take their time to help the ignorant!

  I advise you to immediately copies of your DBX files restored. Save the duplicates in a place safe, and don't mess with them.
  Then try using one of the various tutorials that you have found on the Internet by using a copy of your DBX files restored.
  I did it a few times, but years ago and I DBX http://www.techrepublic.com/forums/questions/how-i-open-corrupted-dbx-files-in-oe/ visualization tool
  You just continue to make attempts, using a tutorial after another.
  As long as you have these unchanged copies of backup of your DBX files, you should survive it - other than frustration. Email PC remains a mess.

• Cannot open Outlook Express dbx files saved

  Original title: files__ dbx

  I backed up all of my Outlook Express folders and now I can not open them. They have all of the .dbx endings. How can I restore them?

  If you have saved all of the directory, copy it to the desktop computer and right-click on the file and check properties to ensure that they are not read-only.  Then go to file | Import | Messages in OE and choose to import from a directory, and point to this directory.  To import a single dbx file, see www.oehelp.com/backup.aspx#imp1

• Outlook Express .dbx files:

  Why old deleted messages is apparently removed from the storage folder?

  When you delete a message, it is actually only marked for deletion. It's not really gone and will not reduce in size dbx files until you compact your folders.

• CRNT FF: 1 of 5 emails lost all my messages on viewing but shows the amount of mails are there. Search can find them all, just will not appear in the Inbox

  1 of 5 email ACCOUNTS receive mail OK, but as soon as you leave this account and that you come back, nothing appears in the Inbox. The status bar shows however, that there are 32 emails it even if the Inbox is devoid of any text.

    Using Search, I can find ALL 32 emails by searching for a word in the subject field or the body fields. The mails ARE there!  They just do not display in the Inbox.
  

  Then... How the hell can I get the Inbox to display its content again?

  It worked until the day before yesterday when I read an e-mail from a reliable source and it automatically disappeared, along with all others in the Inbox. All other accounts are working very well.

     I tried creating a new email account but it wouldn't let me, giving me an error that the "incoming already exists".  No number or anything; it come when I click DONE in the creation process.  The new account will not write to the disk.
  

  I ran NOrton, AVG, MalWare Bytes, Windows Defender, Spybot AV and the other that I forgot the name of that time. ALL showed nothing found after each live scan success. I'm reasonable sure, I have no malicious software.

  Emails from this account are quite important, and I don't want to lose them if possible; they are for a Committee planning the 50th high-school reunion.

  Windows 7 HP, Dell XPS L702, 6 Gig of RAM, Intel i7 processor and lots of disk space. I've also compacted without change. The messages are all still there, but nothing shows in my Inbox; It is empty. I only see them using Find Messages from words I know are in them.

    Happy to provide any other info needed to evaluate this.  Oh, the account Sends OK too; it's a POP3 account setup.
  

  Any help would be most appreciated!

• Import DBX files

  Old PC died.  Files restored through Carbonite.  Could not import old mail Outlook Express DBX files to new PC Windows 7 Outlook.  What can a novist to fix this?

  Outlook can't import OE without OE files being installed on the computer, which of course can not happen in Windows 7.

  You must download and install Windows Live Mail and import the OE files in it. Then EXPORT from Windows Live Mail to Outlook. (Choose the Exchange option and you'll get an option to export to Outlook).

  And BTW, there is no such thing as 'Windows 7' Outlook - he;'s Microsoft Office Outlook...

• I forgot to backup Outlook Express! However, the .dbx files are all in the data folder of Application that I have back up! How can I see what is in them to import to my chosen e-mail program?

  Original title: .dbx files

  I've updated computer laptop of my client from Windows XP to 7.  I forgot to backup Outlook Express!  However, the .dbx files are all in the data folder of Application that I have back up!  How can I see what is in them to import to my chosen e-mail program?

  This is how you would normally import into Windows Live Mail. If all goes well it will give you enough of a jump start.
   
   
   
  Copy the * ENTIRE * OE message store folder to a flash drive. (Folders.dbx must be included). Place it on the desktop or another location on the computer using WLMail.

• Installed Windows 7 and windows live mail, how can I import my emails (.dbx files) of Outlook Express 6 in XP.___Jackson

  I tried everything, I use import in windows live, but the messages do not appear in the additional email account. Changed all Office win7 .dbx files, they seem to be important but do not appear in the email client. I tried everything, and read all that, short of ideas.
  Any help, greatly appreciated.

  Thanks for the help, finally understand it a day or two ago, it is important in a storage folder, it WILL NOT put it in the mail client, you have to find the storage folder. who is buried deep (C:\Users\***\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Live Mail\Storage Folders\Imported Folder\Local folder) in the C drive, and then copy and paste in the files, one folder by one. BTW, the link refers to the import of Vista, Win7 not. The process does not work in Win7

• When you try to copy messages from Outlook Express to Live Mail, all of the .dbx except folders.dbx files copy OK. My new PC cannot read the disc to import messages (probably because that folders.dbx is missing?)

  I followed the contours of Ms. webesite steps to transfer my OE messages to my new LiveMail on my new PC. Instructions to mention to make sure that when you copy the message on a CD for transfer files to new PC that they must include the file "folders.dbx".  All my files message correctly copy except "folders.dbx".

  I guess that's why the new PC says there are no messages on the CD to be imported from (although I see that all of the .dbx files).

  Why is that I am having a problem copying "folders.dbx" and this is my problem in terms of imports?

  Create a new identity in OE and import the messages. This new storage location to transfer it to WLMail. It will be all new dbx files so no corruption should be gone.

• Problem importing files Outlook Express to Windows Live Mail in Windows 7__

  My new computer has Windows 7 and, of course, Windows Live Mail.  My old computer has Windows XP and Outlook Express.  I copied my file OE that contains all my USB key *.dbx files.  On the file menu of WLM, I then selected "Import Messages" and then indicated the location of my OE files on the USB key.  When I clicked to import the files, a small window with a green status bar that showed all the imported files.  I then clicked on "Finish."  My problem is even if the import seems to be successful I don't think the imported files or folders in Live Mail.  I tried twice with the same results.  Did I miss a step?  My just OE files seem to have not gotten in my Windows Live Mail program.

  Look in the imported folders under storage folders. If you do not see the storage files, in the Menu bar: view | Page layout | The folders pane. Check: View the storage folders.

  Missing Menu bar? Click the menu button to the left of the help button and activate the menu bar.

  If still no joy, copy the database messages OE of the USB on the desktop and try to import from there.

  Transfer of data from Outlook Express and Windows Live Mail:

  For messages:

  Copy the * ENTIRE * OE message store folder to a flash drive. (Folders.dbx must be included). Place it on the desktop or another location on the computer using WLMail. Open WLMail and: file | Import | Messages | Microsoft Outlook Express 6, and the point where it was saved.

  Location of OE message store:

  In OE: Tools | Options | Maintenance | Store folder will reveal the location of your Outlook Express files. Note the location and navigate on it in Explorer Windows or, copy and paste in start | Run.

  In Windows XP, Win2K & Win2K3 the OE user files (DBX and WAB) are by default marked as hidden. To view these files in Windows Explorer, you must enable Show hidden files and folders under start | Control Panel | Folder Options icon | Opinion, or in Windows Explorer. Tools | Folder options | View.

  For addresses:

  Open the address book in OE and file | Export | Address book (wab) and save it to the desktop. Copy it to a flash drive. Place it on the desktop or another location on the computer using WLMail.

  Open the Contacts list in WLMail, (go |) Contacts in the Menu bar) and the file | Import | Address book (wab) Windows and the point where you saved it.

  Note: If you use a CD or a DVD instead of a flash drive, after placing on the new machine you must remove the read-only attribute in the properties before you import.

• Conversion of Outlook Express .dbx to Microsoft Live Mail issue box for receiving and sending files conversion

  I am able to convert most of my old Outlook Express files to Microsoft Live Mail, with the exception of the Inbox, and send files.   The two files are not empty.  My OS is Windows 7 64 bit.  The 'Files' file is located in the directory with the .dbx files.  Most of the files have been converted except these two.  The converted file sent.

  Can advise you on what to do to fix this?  I need the information contained in the Inbox, and send.   I have more access to Outlook Express.

  Best regards, Kat

  Unless you left no messages in the Outbox, it must be empty. Messages are just going through there on the way to your mail server.
   
   
  Folders.dbx is the "brain" of the system of dbx files and contains all the actual messages.
   
   
  Now regarding the messages from the Inbox, I don't know why they won't matter in Windows Live Mail. You compact the folders in OE before saving the message store? WLMail has great trouble with import of dbx files. How do you backup and transfer the storage of OE with dbx files folder?
   
   
  If you still have access to the machine with OE, it would be easy to fix. Given that you don't do it, you probably have two options.
   
   
  If you have professional, enterprise or ultimate edition, you can use OE in XP Mode. Who can import all the messages and then we can transfer it to WLMail.

• How can I restore e-mail in Outlook Express using a .dbx file?

  original title: restoration of the emails in OE

  I followed all the steps to restore or replace a .dbx file in OE.  However, I now get the following error message when OE starts receiving messages: "an unknown error has occurred. "Account: 'mail.comcast.net', server: 'mail.comcast.net', Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, secure (SSL): no, error number: 0x800C0133. Is it because of the number of messages (24 414), he's trying to receive? Is there a solution?

  Did you move messages from your Inbox, and then create a new Inbox? If this is not the case, after return.

  Even if you did, the new Inbox probably will deal with many messages.

  Tools | Accounts | Mail | Properties | Advanced - uncheck: leave a copy of messages on the server. Now connect to your Comcast Webmail site and remove about 23 000 messages so that they do not download.
