  Follow these steps only if no one else is using this Outlook Express identity.

  1: in OE: tools | Accounts | Delete the account.

  2: delete all messages in the OE files and empty the deleted items folder.

  3: remove all the dbx files in the message of store with OE closed. When it is open, new, and create empty dbx files.

  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 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.

  Close OE store folder and open Outlook Express. Select all the dbx files and delete them.

• With the help of old Windows CD to install the optional component deleted Outlook Express and I need to get it back!

  We have received a Windows XP laptop from a friend and use Outlook Express for e-mail. We had a number of other things such as pilots with the laptop but not the Windows CD.  Then we wanted to reduce the size of a jpg image and I wanted to use MS Photo Editor to do what I then read on the Microsoft site that I could get by installing from any Windows CD.  Therefore, I used an old Windows XP CD from another PC, choose to install an optional component and chose as accessories to the next screen, ensure that all other options were struck down, assuming that so they would simply not be installed.  One of them was Outlook Express and Internet Explorer.  Instead of THIS the wizard DELETED Outlook Express and Internet Explorer.  When I tried to get him back by checking these options, asked me for the 2nd day of the original installation CD - which of course, I did not!  I have managed to re - download IE8 from Microsoft Download site, but of course do that for Outlook Express - and we don't have Office on this computer: (.)  Help!  (a) is it possible to reverse this process to remove/uninstall Outlook Express? (b) we now lost all our emails? (c) I already tried to go back to a previous good configuration, but that has not worked.

  Thank you in advance for advice, answers or help.

  First, make sure that OE has actually disappeared.  Go to start | Run and paste this and see if OE starts:

  "c:\program files\Outlook Express\msimn.exe".

  Including the quotes and see if OE starts.  Very often "withdrawal" OE removes just the shortcut to it.

  If this does not work, you can try reinstalling XP SP3 (http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/help/learn-how-to-install-windows-xp-service-pack-3-sp3), but you should probably uninstall IE8 first and then reinstall it later.

  You can also go to the c:\windows\inf directory and locate the msoe5.inf file and right-click on it and choose Install and see if that fixes things.

  See if that works.

• Cooperation Outllook Express and Outlook 2010

  I have a desktop with Outlook Express and a laptop with Outlook 2010 using the same email address (for a small business).  When I open Outlook Express, everything disappears from the Inbox in Outlook, even if I watched it.  I really need as a whole.  How do I do that?  My PC has XP and Office 2003 whereas my laptop has Windows 7 with Office 2010.

  You must use the IMAP protocol on both computers - it seems that OE is configured for POP3 and Outlook for IMAP.

• I'm using Outlook Express and from time to time, the box "leave a copy of messages on the server" becomes disabled automatically.

  Hi, Im using Outlook Express and from time to time, box "leave a copy of messages on the server" becomes disabled automatically.

  Ive checked the Task Manager, its not running after close Outlook.

  Appreciate your comments.

  This can be dependent on ISP or it could just be OE spoil.  I saw this happen at any time.  You can try to backup the message store, and then delete the mail account completely (you will not lose messages).  The file to run. Folder | All compact.  Then close and reopen OE and then add the account back again.  See if things stick after that.

• Setup of Windows XP do not have Outlook Express and Character Map installed along with

  I keep my windows XP updated regularly and would always Outlook Express and the table of available characters. Then I uninstalled a few components such as games and discoveries windows Outlook Express was gone too. When I add Outlook Express even once, I lose the Character Map and when I re install the character map, I lose Outlook Express. Cannot have both at the same time! Any ideas?

  Thank you, Bruce.  I finally got the two programs running again. I discovered that when a user archive boxes to add or remove programs, the action is fast, but the boxes are not automatically disabled later. I tried two programs that run several times over a period of 24 hours, and because the check box of the character table is a sup layer I guess I must have missed at a time when the audit or boxes to uncheck it to the rest of the changes I made.

• Connected to Outlook Express and all my existing e-mails have disappeared

  original title: Outlook Express

  Connected to Outlook Express and all my existing e-mails have disappeared.  Only those today showed.  I tried using the search of .eml files and get no results.  Can anyone help with location on the hard drive the .eml files?  Thank you.

  You won't find files for Outlook Express .eml. They are stored in the format of data in the form of .dbx files.

  ******************************************

  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? :

  Recovery methods:

  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:

  When I set uo Outlook Express, all of my emails that were on my cox mail server have been transferred to outlook express and then dissapered. Where have all my messages and how to get them back?

  You did not indicate EO to leave a copy of messages on the server, so when he downloaded from the server, they have been removed from it.  Go to tools | Accounts | Mail | Properties | Advanced and check the box leave a copy on the server for the future.
