• Computer died. Past from Windows XP to Vista. Lost Outlook Express mail folders. Not in Windows Mail. (Got 3 months of e-mail entering the transfer.) I can't the old Outlook Express files?

  This is my first posting. Don't know how much has appeared in the "title". Computer died. Past from Windows XP to Vista. Lost Outlook Express mail folders. Not in Windows Mail. (Got 3 months of e-mail entering the transfer.) I can't the old Outlook Express files?

  Have I lost the files of Outlook Express completely or is there a way that I can import them in the same way that e-mail came? My old computer died (power source grilled or something like that). I still have it, but no way to turn it on.

  If you can access the old hard drive PC you can get the data of Outlook Express store.  See this: http://www.oehelp.com/backup.aspx or this: http://www.insideoe.com/backup/ Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook]

• Why all the emails Outlook express opens at the far right of the screen?

  Why all the emails Outlook express opens at the far right of the screen? I have to take the cursor to the top right of the computer screen, then click to maximize the file so that it opens to the normal size and location. Does not try to 'change' the file to the normal position. Thank you

  Any window that you want to resize all the time must be the last closed window.

  Take the corners of the window and drag it to the format full screen. Do not use to expand. Close all other windows first via the taskbar and the latter. Windows will remember the size of the last closed window the next time that you open the program.

• After removing Office 2010 Trial, I lost my address book Outlook Express and cannot open emails.

  I installed a free trial of office 2010, but he did not understand the editor which was what I wanted.   I uninstalled it now I lost my address book in outlook express and can't open saved emails.

  I can't find my software or backup and think that I lost when I moved.

  Lynn

  Yes, you will need to reinstall Office 2000. When you installed Office 2010 trial, he removed Office 2000. Once you get the cd, reinstall Office and should be back up and running.

  I can't offer any assistance with address number address Outlook Express however.

  Thank you...

  Two reasons the most common for what you describe is disruption of the compacting process, (never touch anything until it's finished), or bloated folders. More about that below.

  Why OE insists on compacting folders when I close it? :

  About file Corruption:
  http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/IE/community/columns/filecorruption.mspx

  Recovery tools:

  If you use XP/SP2 or SP3, and are fully patched, then you should have a backup of your dbx files in the Recycle Bin (or possibly the message store), copied as bak files.

  To restore a folder bak on the message store folder, first find the location of the message store.

  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, the .dbx files are by default marked as hidden. To view these files in the Solution Explorer, you must enable Show hidden files and folders under start | Control Panel | Folder options | View.

  Close OE and in Windows Explorer, click on the dbx to the file missing or empty file, then drag it to the desktop. It can be deleted later once you have successfully restored the bak file. Minimize the message store.

  Open OE and, if the folder is missing, create a folder with the * exact * same name as the bak file you want to restore but without the .bak. For example: If the file is Saved.bak, the new folder should be named saved. Open the new folder, and then close OE. If the folder is there, but just empty, continue to the next step.

  First of all, check if there is a bak file already in the message. If there is, and you have removed the dbx file, go ahead and rename it in dbx.

  If it is not already in the message, open the trash and do a right-click on the file bak for the folder in question and click on restore. Open the message store up and replace the .bak by .dbx file extension. Close the message store and open OE. Messages must be in the folder.

  If messages are restored successfully, you can go ahead and delete the old dbx file that you moved to the desktop.
   
  If you have not then bak copies of your dbx files in the Recycle Bin:

  DBXpress run in extract disc Mode is the best chance to recover messages:
  http://www.oehelp.com/DBXpress/default.aspx

  And see:
  http://www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#4

  A general warning to help avoid this in the future:

  Do not archive mail in default OE folders. They finally are damaged. Create your own folders defined by the user for mail storage and move your mail to them. Empty the deleted items folder regularly. Keep user created folders under 300 MB, and also empty as is possible to default folders.

  Disable analysis in your e-mail anti-virus program. It 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:
  http://www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3

  And backup often.

• extraction of Widows Live back-up of the deceased computerl may contact list

  I backed up my Windows 7 computer, including an image system on an external hard drive just before the laptop crashed.  Can I use this to recover my Windows Live Mail contact list and my Internet Explorer Favorites? And how?  The back-up included an image of the system.

  You can mount the image you have created as a letter from separate drive called "virtual hard drive" as follows:

  1. Use Windows Explorer to locate the .vhd file in the folder on your external drive \WindowsImageBackup.
  2. Launch Manager (diskmgmt.msc) disks.
  3. Click Action, and then attach the virtual hard disk.
  4. Use the Browse button to locate the .vhd file that you found in step 1, and then click OK.
  5. Note the new assigned Windows drive letter. It could be G:. If no drive letter is assigned, right click on the new drive and give it a drive letter.
  6. Ask the experts in a forum WLM how to access your contact list. They could tell you set disk G: storage location.
  7. When you are finished, close Windows Explorer.
  8. Go back to the Disk Manager.
  9. Right click on the new drive on the left side of the Panel where it says "base" and "line".
  10. Click detach VHD.

  I also recommend that you review your philosophy of backup. Important files should be stored permanently on two independent media. If your hard drive had crashed until you have created the image then you would have lost the lot.

• Can't the main Outlook Express identity

  I made a mistake and put in place a new identity of thought I changed just names - now I can not get my idenidy main return - when I start outlook it opens into the new identity but "unresponsive" so I can open anything in the toolbar so that I could edit in main identity.  What should I do?

  Folders.dbx is probably corrupted in the new identity.
   
  In Windows XP, the files of user OE (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.
   
  The path to the message will be very similar to this:
   
  C:\Documents and Settings\Your User of utilisateur\Local Settings\Application Data\Identities\ {long string of letters & numbers} \Microsoft\Outlook Express
   
  With OE closed, find the Folders.dbx file and delete it.  Another will be created automatically when you open OE.
   
   
  You'll have a record of storage for two identities, but they will be easily identified by the names and sizes of the dbx files.

• Cannot enter spaces between words in the Message Outlook Express rule

  I had to re - set up of operating systems Windows XP Pro on top of the existing system without reformatting the hard disk. Now, I noticed that when you create a new message rule, I can't enter a space by the shift to separate words in entry for example "of". I'm used to be able to type in a space between words such as the names and surnames of persons before the re-establishment. When I type the words as they appear as, e.g. "JohnMcKay" instead of "John McKay", which is what I intend to enter if Outlook Express is to process the mail entering this sender as I will. In the previous implementation of the operating system, there was only a user named 'administrator '. Now, there is always a single user with my name appears as an administrator of the computer. Maybe I shouldn't have typed in my name as the user of the computer during the installation and instead should have typed 'Administrator' only as a user. I don't know if that makes a difference in the consequences of the new organization of the operating system. I would appreciate any suggestions to overcome this problem.

  I have no idea if the way that you have installed XP has nothing to do with it. If so, I can't help. But, a few questions...

  1. Why should you use the Shift key? The space bar works for me.
  2. Why is it you enter the address of the person instead of their name?
  3. You can try this to see if the registry is damaged. It is common in OE.

  1. close OE, then in Regedit, navigate to this key:

  | - HKEY_CURRENT_USER
  | - Identities
  |-{GUID}
  | - Software
  | - Microsoft
  | - Outlook Express
  |--------------------5.0

  where GUID is the Global Unique identifier for your identity.

  2. under this key, you will find the following between subkeys
  others:

  | - Block senders
  |-----------------------Rules
  | - Signatures

  Select the key rules and delete it. Message rules will be empty, but you can rebuild them now.  Note This will remove all rules.
  

  If that does not do it, maybe it's the equipment and I don't have any additional advice.

• The old Outlook Express under Vista file recovery

  I have a file called "Outlook Express" that was recovered from my XP machine failure.  I bought a new computer with Vista.  Vista mail will not import these files of messages in this folder in OE.  How to import these old messages in Windows Mail; or d ' elsewhere-how to access and read those old emails with any method?
  Thank you. ***

  In Outlook Express folder should be several files with names like Sent.dbx, Inbox.dbx and Folders.dbx.  The last one is particularly important.  If these files exist, you can import Outlook Express messages in Windows Mail:

  1. Press ALT + F .
  2. Click on import > Messages > Microsoft Outlook Express > Next .
  3. Click on Import mail from an OE6 store directory > OK .
  4. Navigate to the Outlook Express folder, click Next , and follow the prompts.
