  • Outlook express crash

    After a crash, chkdsk and repair installation of windows xp sp3, I have two problems:
    1. I can't start Outlook express. He blocks, gives me this message "Outlook express has encountered a problem and needs to close." Him 'click here' tells me that there was a problem in mlang.dll. Is it possible to fix this error? (I tried uninstalling the oe and reinstall the control panel and manually removing the keys from registry etc and no luck at all.) Also it does not work with a new account or deleted all the dbx files, it gives the same error, so it must be a problem in the application files.
    2. Windows update lists approximately 101 files, that are not installed (as they download, but then they do not).
    Is it possible to solve these problems without performing a clean installation of windows?

    It seems that if you have multiple questions.  For the question of EO, see if the help of this article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/274419

  • A message from problem Outlook Express crashes, cannot remove

    When I get a message from problem in Outlook Express, marked with a blue "down arrow" which means a low priority, it crashes Outl. Expr. so I can't post it, remove it, or anything.  I have to close Outl. Exp. and reopen it and avoid to come to her.  I received another message from the same retailer online with the same arrow and was able to remove it, but this one puts me.  I tried connecting with the email client in Windows 7 on my wife's cell phone to see if I could delete it, but he apparently left the server.  It seems therefore that the message has disappeared, but still in my Inbox.  How can I get rid of him?

    Turn off the preview pane so that when you select, OE try not to make it.  Then hold down Shift as you remove them.  It should disappear. Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook]

  • Outlook express crashes when I try to send a .mov file

    I tried to send a video tour where I work at my parents, it's a .mov with the Zi8 video camara but express microsoft kokak file everytime I try to send it, it blocks.

    It may be too big.  If its more a few megabytes, then you can try to convert it to a smaller format, if you have this ability.  Or download on a Web site and give them the link to download.  Some ISPS also have a limit of 10 megabytes.

  • Outlook Express hangs after a facebook message

    Whenever I get an email notice that somebody posted on my wall on Facebook, I click to open the e-mail message and Outlook Express crashes.  Soluto says it's probably because of the nesplitter.ax file.  I can't locate this file on my computer.  Any suggestions on how to stop this crash?

    It is a known issue with certain mail such as OE clients, given Facebook emails do not conform to the standards of the Internet.  The only way around is to read Facebook messages in plain text only.  So if you get one, before you open it, go to tools | Options | Read and verify the ability to read messages in plain text only, then you can read the message without it crashing.

    You can also get my free OETool (www.oehelp.com/OETool/) program, which has a button that toggles this option of HTML / plain text.

    Alternatively, you can set up a message rule that if the message comes from Facebook, then move it to another folder.  Before going into this folder to read the messages, turn the read plain text messages option.

  • I am having major problems with my emails. I can send emails OK but I can't receive them. I use Outlook Express.

    I am having major problems with my emails.  I can send emails OK but I can't receive them.  I use Outlook Express.  When I first turn on outlook express, emails start coming, but then outlook express crashes.  I disable outlook express and start again. My emails are stuck in the Orange webmail box until the last email is downloaded.  This means that I sometimes get the same time to send four or five. I called technical support Orange several times, but they say it's a problem of microsoft. I use Windows XP.

    original title: I can't receive emails from outlook express.

    Hi Mike,.

    Make sure that you have not activated your antivirus software analysis of electronic mail.  See www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3 which is often a problem with receiving and sending a message.

    Then, try to go to file | Identities and setup a new identity.  This will give you a new message store and a new registry hive (where all the settings and account info is).  Add your email account and see if it works very well.  If it sticks sometimes, make sure that you are not setting to check messages too often (like every 3 minutes or somesuch).  You can also try to increase the timeout for the server where this is a problem (Tools |) Accounts | Mail | Properties | Advanced).  See if who deals with issues "" OE gel.  If Yes, then you can use the file | Import | Messages to bring them from the old identity.

    I do not know that moving to Outlook might solve the problem, because they both use the same mechanism to retrieve messages.  If you still have problems, come on and generate a log file and when OE freezes, which could give some indication of what is the underlying problem.  Make sure that you disable the log file later, because this file grows enormously and can cause problems if it becomes too large.

  • Computer crashed and has been restored. I can't find my address book Outlook Express or Outlook Express folders. Please help me.

    Computer crashed and a computer store restored our operating system. However, I can't find my address book Outlook Express or Outlook Express folders. Please help me.

    Kewl! Did you find a folder named Outlook Express which had a number of inside DBX files? And there a file called Folders.dbx? If so, that's fine.
     
    Write on the way and in the new identity of OE: file | Import | Messages. Select Microsoft Outlook Express 6, and then point to the folder that you have found.
     
      
  • How to get my Outlook Express, I had before the crash and restore?

    My computer crashed so bad I had to click on the f10 key, but it did a restore and I lost my Outlook express, even my e-mail provider windstream has been lost and now, they can't recognize my old login, can't my email even with the same settings as I had typed out after that I started usuing Windstream in 2010 my address book is gone! can not get my address book! My new outlook Express6 has a released check it out, but when I click on it nothing happens. I used it even though my intention was not to send an e-mail, I am a bad speller! I'm very confused with my old outlook Express and the address book. The news is very disappointing!

    According to Bruce, you will need to search for *.dbx to locate the directory of dbx files.  Make sure that you have configured to display the hidden files and folders and do not hide the extensions of the types of files known as control panel | Folder options | View.  Also when research conduct an advanced search and include files and folders hidden in the advanced search parameters.  The address book is a wab, so also the search for *.wab file.  When find you them, then use the file | Import | Messages and files. Import | Address book to get back them.  See also www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#4 and www.oehelp.com/backup.aspx for background information.

    If you have formatted the drive when you did reinstall it, then the old files have disappeared.  My DBXpress program has a record feature which can recover some of the lost messages (see www.oehelp.com/DBXpress/).

    To the properties of your account, you need to collate Windstream or check their Web site for the correct settings.

  • five out of six times (approximately) to start outlook express 6, it crashes while trying to access the first message

    five out of six times (approximately) to start outlook express 6, it crashes while trying to access the first message. This happens several times, and each time the first message (even) appears in the Inbox, even if the process is not complete. sometimes clear the cache, or cleaning IE temp. the files seems to help - but not always.

    It's VERY frustrating!

    1: 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.
     
    Information on the maximum size of the .dbx files that are used by Outlook Express:
    http://support.Microsoft.com/?kbid=903095
     
    2: 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.
     
    3: disable analysis in your e-mail anti-virus program. It is a redundant layer of protection that devours the processors and causes a multitude of problems such as time-outs and account setting changes. Your up-to-date A / V program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For more information, see:
    http://www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3
     
    For some programs, turning it off is not enough. You may need to uninstall and reinstall in custom Mode and remove the analysis when e-mail messages.

    • Define 'crash '.
    • OE else works?
    1. 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.

    2. Do a search, then search for *.wab
    3. If you find your address book, open the address book in OE and then file | Import | Address book (wab) and navigate to the location that you found it in.

  • Outlook Express 6 (Windows XP Pro) keep crashing after start-up.

    When it crashes at startup, it freezes when receiving mail electronic (no email is downloaded).

    See if you can get OE open and in tools | Options | General, uncheck the box: check for messages at startup and check for messages every X minutes. It's probably the gel in the poll for messages.

    Create a new identity, you probably have the corruption of dbx files. Make the new identity by default value.

    You may have a damaged identity especially if it's the default main identity. File | Identity | Add the new identity. Create a new one and try it. If all goes well, you can import your messages and address book from the old identity and delete it.

    Note: Do not use the main word in the name of the new identity.
