  • To free up disk space, Outlook Express can compact the messages. This can take up to a few minutes. OK Cancel

    I started getting this issue of dialog start until recently. It appears every time on start up. I do not understand how or where it comes from because I do not use Outlook Express - I use Outlook. I always Cancel, but it always comes back. What has caused this? Is this a virus (my security software said no)? It would be safe to respond ok to clean? Thank you.

    Well, I see that Microsoft watches this question!   I also get this and I don't use Outlook at all, nor is it even listed in my control panel of the installed software.  I thought that if I could uninstall it it would go, but there is nothing that I can uninstall.  A response would be nice.

    Outlook and Outlook Express are two different programs. Outlook Express is a part of XP, so it cannot be uninstalled. If you get the compact quick to Outlook Express and are even use it, reset the registry only works for a few days, or even hours. When it starts up again, consider the following.

    If Windows Search is installed on this machine, which is the likely culprit. You have to tell to stop indexing OE.

    In the control panel. Indexing Options. Change. Clear the check box for Outlook Express.

  • Outlook Express 6 is the e-mail client 'default' in Works 8.5, can remove this icon and or replaced by Outlook 2003 or the 'other' no matter what version of outlook?

    Hi all

    I have an old Dell Dimension 2400 desktop running Windows XP Pro. It has Microsoft Works 8.5, which contains a reference to Outlook Express 6 icon, so that it can be launched from inside Works 8.5.

    I use NO Outlook Express 6, because I have Outlook 2003 AND Outlook 2007, can I use on it instead, if I want to - which I am not at the moment.

    Anyone in this community know if it is possible to remove the icon from Outlook Express 6 to Works 8.5.

    (and possibly 'replace' the icon with one for Outlook 2003 so that THIS 2003 version opens instead?)

    There is no icon in Add/Remove programs for Outlook Express, or y at - it one in the "all programs" list. Is it possible to uninstall Outlook Express Windows XP completely somehow so that it does not Works 8.5 launch when a user clicks on its ' icon?

    This version of Outlook Express does not work anyway (I tried to set up accounts in there, but they do not work even with the correct details) so it's wasting space on this little hard drive.

    I want to be able to implement this old pc - that works fine as long as I accept his ' limits (Intel Celeron 2.4 Ghz single core cpu, 2 GB of Ram, 80 GB HDD)-for the nephews and my 11 years old 7yr to use it safely for the duties of the school, (I have a copy of the Encyclopedia Britannica 2006) , basic base 'games for kids' Web site, when they come to visit. My nephews have not much experience pc anyway and have no interest in the emails.

    There is no other applications on it (which were not ' provided with Window XP Pro") for the moment, outside Works 8.5 and Windows Live nephews will have access to.

    Norton Internet Security 2012, Norton Utilities, Norton go back 4.2 and control Parental Norton will be also created on this pc with Admin access only.

    Otherwise, anyone here know of any 'other' app is similar to 8.5 Works that have the same characteristics of the task/project based - but without email - that I could use instead, which would continue to operate on an old XP pc?

    I would greatly appreciate any ideas or advice from someone who wants to give it.

    Thank you!

    I can probably only partially help because I've never used Outlook or works.
     
    Outlook Express is a part of XP, so it cannot be deleted, and probably, it takes less space than Norton.
     
    Control Panel | Add/Remove programs. Add/Remove Windows components. Find Outlook Express and uncheck the box.
     
    Control Panel | Add/Remove programs. Set Program Access and Defaults. Custom + down arrow | Select the option for Outlook 2003.

  • I can't receive emails on Outlook Express. Get the 0x800C0133 error message number.

    I can send and receive Outlook e-mail messages and can send emails on Outlook Express, but cannot receive them on Outlook Express. Get the 0x800C0133 error message number.

    I can send and receive Outlook e-mail messages and can send emails on Outlook Express, but cannot receive them on Outlook Express. Get the 0x800C0133 error message number.   Problem seems to be with the program Outlook Express and think I need to reinstall.  How do you do that?
    Error number: 0x800C0133 = a corrupt Inbox.
     
    Move any message you want to save to a local folder that you create. Then, remove the problem of Inbox as follows.
     
    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 | View.
     
    With OE closed, find the box of Inbox.dbx and delete it. Another will be created automatically when you open OE.
     
    General precautions for Outlook Express:
     
    Do not archive mail in the receipt or sent items box. Create your own user-defined folders and move messages you want to put in them. Empty the deleted items folder daily. Although the dbx files have a theoretical capacity of 2 GB, I recommend all a 300 MB max for less risk of corruption.
     
    After you're done, followed by compacting your folders manually while working * off * and do it often.
     
    Click Outlook Express at the top of the the folder tree so no folders are open. Then: File | Work offline (or double-click on work online in the status bar). File | Folder | Compact all folders. Don't touch anything until the compacting is completed.

I checked the Windows components that are installed and checked that.  Once again; He started at the beginning of this week.  There are a few updates that was installed earlier this week also.  No other software has been added.  I use Outlook 2003 and have for years.  Will continue to cancel this message, I would appreciate it if someone could shed some light on how to prevent this message from poping up upward.

    Of course, it has something to with Windows Search as you suggest.

    Marius

    Prompt compaction is triggered whenever you close OE 100 times.  So if you compact manually, you don't get invited again until you close OE for another 100 times.  Unfortunately there is no way to change this.  Dbx files shall be compacted.  If they are not, they will move on to an enormous size, and then get corrupted, so it is important to pack on a regular basis.

    When I try to open an attachment in my email address, the program goes directly to Microsoft Word instead of going to this type of program, the attachment was created for example Adobe.  It started just do this in the last 2 weeks. What should I do to get the Outlook Express to open attachments in the file of type, they are created

    You will have to do for various types of files. I use PDF files for an example.

    Create a file association.

    1. download and save the attachment to the office.
    2. right click on the saved file.
    3. Select: Open with on the shortcut menu.
    4. click on: choose [default] program.
    5. Select: Adobe Reader.
    6. check: always use the selected program to open this type of file.
    7. click on OK.

    This should allow you to open these attachments directly from email address now.

  • Outlook Express can compact messages. How can I disable this error?

    OUTLOOK Express on Windows XP very annoying, it's almost each and every time I click on anything whether to open or close any program, etc...

    An error message is displayed: OUTLOOK Express: to free up disk space, Outlook Express can compact messages.

    This can take up to a few minutes.      OK or CANCEL

    It's on my computer for several years now and bugs the heck out of me.  How can I remove it so he won't?

    ALSO: All programs when opening are reduced to the minimum (small format) forces me to click on the big box next to the RED X at the top right?

    Why this is happening and how to remove this problem.  I do NOT need to expand all my programs constantly from the start?

    Thanks for your help Mike G.   * E-mail address is removed from the privacy *

    I do not use OE so I really should stay out of it, but I have it in my notes that can get you started and then other people may also help:

    I advise all to first understand what is happening and then decide how best to treat for your environment:

    If you are talking about a message that says:

    To free up disk space, Outlook Express can compact messages. This can take up to a few minutes.

    Automatic compaction of Outlook Express files was introduced in Service Pack 2.

    If you are using Windows XP, there is a registry value called:

    Compact Check Count

    It is located in the registry for a key that looks like this:

    \Software\Microsoft\Outlook Express\5.0 HKCU\Identities\ {51909A0B-63EE-4EB3-A9A2-7CFA23C1ADCF}

    Whenever you leave OE (not when you open it), the value of the counter increases by an increment (increment is not a verb so you can't increment something and a counter cannot be incremented).  When the value of the counter gets to 101, the next time you close OE asked you to compress messages.

    There are two things that will increase the value of the counter.

    Exit from Outlook Express will increase the value of the counter.

    If you have Windows Desktop Search installed, it will increase the counter every time it works which is usually at least at each reboot.

    If you use Outlook Express, and Windows Desktop Search, the counter will be increased more frequently — whenever you close Outlook Express and whenever Windows Desktop Search launches when you restart.

    So if you have Desktop Search installed, which will increase the counter of an increment, each time that you start and if you open and close OE ten times a day, your meter will be at eleven after only a day.  Repeat this for 9 days and you will see this message.

    Even if you are not using Outlook Express and only using Windows Desktop Search, which will still increase the meter, so when the meter reaches 100, Windows Desktop Search will prompt you to compress messages at the next reboot even if you use not OE.

    This is because Windows Desktop Search is configured by default to search for the Outlook Express database if you are using OE or not.

    No matter how the counter is increased, if you use at least one of these two, eventually you will see this message appear sooner or later.  But you can stop it when you understand.

    Did you know that the "increase" is not a verb?  If you cannot 'increment' (or decrement) a counter.  You can increase or decrease an increment, however.

    You can compress data when prompted (which resets the counter to 0).

    You can change the registry and reset the counter to hand to buy some time until you see the message again.

    If you do not use Outlook Express and only using Windows Desktop Search you can tell Windows Desktop Search to never watch the Outlook Express database (or uninstall the Windows Desktop Search if you do not use).

    To remove the Option of Windows Desktop Search index to the database of Outlook Express follow these steps:

    Click Start, settings, Control Panel, Indexing Options, change, clear the box Outlook Express, OK, OK, to save the settings and reboot the system so that the changes will be effective.

    After the Outlook Express recommended for use (which would include the normal database maintenance) will prevent you from seeing the message in the first place.  If you see the message that you might want to reconsider how you use Outlook Express and the risks of data store corruption of occasional or misuse (risk behaviours).

    Most people using Outlook Express or Windows Desktop Search agree just remove the indexing Option in Windows Desktop Search and keep the meter that is built into Outlook Express so that they will remind to compact the database from time to time.  If you had to sort of do not maintain your Outlook Express files, it would be risky for your messages.

    Windows Desktop Search is a memory and CPU of pigs anyway, so you better system performance if you just uninstall it.

    Here is an article with some other information:

    http://www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#2

  • To free up disk space, Outlook Express can compact messages. This can take up to a few minutes.

    Every few minutes the message:

    "To free up disk space, Outlook Express can compact messages.  This can take up to a few minutes. »

    It is irrelevant for two reasons:

    (1) I do not use Outlook Express and have therefore no messages to be compacted.

    (2) I have not free disk space as I am currently using only five percent of the very large disks.

    Is could someone please tell me how I get rid of this very irritating message.

    Try to reset the compact County in the registry:

    1. Start the registry editor.
    2. Open this key:

      \Software\Microsoft\Outlook Express\5.0 HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Identities\ {identity}

      where the identity is a string of letters, numbers, and dashes.

    3. The value of Compact Check Count to 0.
    4. Close the registry editor.
