Outlook Express works in Vista compatibility mode in another way?

Hello

Can I get Outlook Express to run in 32-bit Vista Business SP1 somehow?

I checked the forums (positions) and the Windows Compatibility Center (who says OE is not compatible, but only mentions Win 7 and 8 and there is no alternative) but I received no answer.  Most of the motions deal with forward messages from OE to new forms of e-mail programs.
In a software engineering job MS comes to wane answer:

http://answers.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/Forum/windows_vista-hardware/Windows-Live-Mail-versus-Outlook-Express-in-Vista/4aa286c7-C16F-4f07-86f1-785e48ceb42e

I am faced with a dilemma.  My laptop has come back for repairs and a new drive because HARD has been adjusted requires a new installation of the OS.  By default, it starts in Vista Business SP1, but it also comes with the downgrade to XP Pro.  When I first bought the machine, a little more than 3 years ago, I opted for the downgrade.

I have dealt with an earlier version of file not compatible with Vista and versions later (by converting documents to PDF format) and I tested Lotus 1-2-3 and millennial Organizer in Win 7 and 8, in which they work.  On this basis, I suppose they will work in Vista.

Now my major obstacle to go to Vista's OE.  I still have to test if my "marked as unread" and red flag messages will export successfully (without losing their 'flags') to MS Outlook or, preferably Thunderbird, but in the meantime I am facing decide to go with Vista or take the road to downgrade to Vista.

I know in Win 7, it is a VM mode or compatibility, but is there something in the Vista Business?

Thanks much for any help.

There is a hack to use Vista Windows Mail in Win7. There is no download or hack to get OE to work under Vista.

Vista Windows Mail is almost identical to the OE. You cannot use who?

  • Best vista compatibility mode.

    Answer key Question: were a few OS versions origonally.

    When a program can be run in Win XP or Win 2000, should what vista compatibility mode I use XP or 2000? I have an old Lexmark Z22 printer with 2 sets of apps & drivers. A game is for XP only & the other is for XP & 2000.

    You will need to contact Lexmark about their product of the printer.

    You need printer drivers Vista from the site of Manufactuter's Web (Lexmark) of the printer.

    We cannot say that the Win 2000 printer drivers will work with the Vista operating system.

    We can only give you advice that we know.

    Printer manufacturers write the printer drivers Compatible for each operating system successive, until they decide it's time to produce a new line of printers that are compatible with the latest operating system/s.

    They then stop writing compatible drivers for the old printer.

    Then you must upgrade the printer to a model more late printer to work with the new operating system.

    See you soon.

  • Answer the 11/24 got outlook express works GREAT but 1 problem. Deleted items.dbx will not delete. Can you help me or is it a problem?

    Response from you on 11/24 got outlook express works.  THANK_YOU! A problem you suggested deltting Deleted Items.dbx hidden file.  This will not remove.  Poster data error (cyclic Redundancy Check) can help, or are - this a problem?

    Roger

    You should always respond to the original thread so that we know what you're talking about.
     
    1. What have you done so far?
    2. OE closed when you tried to remove the dbx file?
    If you are unable to delete the file, use a new identity. File | Identities | 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.

  • Outlook must MSDOE.dll file of Outlook Express which has been uninstalled years - will not pump to send.

    I'm having this problem with Outlook that I can send this e-mail out but cannot receive anything in - not useful.  Various attempts have prompted me to a message that MSOE.dll is not installed.  What I googled on this topic, Outlook uses different files that are related to Outlook Express and is likely the cause.  The MSOE.dll file is at the heart of everything it seems.

    I use Windows Vista SP2 and Outlook 2010 through Office Professional 2010, version 14.0.5128.5000.

    Email error message I get reads "task ' * address email is removed from the privacy *-receiving ' reported an error (0 x 80040154): ' unknown error 0 x 80040154" "I googled around and found this is related to the MSOE.dll file."  Some Web sites offers things like trying to record using "regsvr32 msoe.dll" but that did not work.

    I use Thunderbird for my mail for years, but for various reasons, wanted to switch to Outlook.  I had uninstalled Outlook Express years ago because I do not have additional software installed on my laptop.   I copied the Outlook Express files in the Program Files folder from another computer, but obviously the .dll files are not registered etc, and I don't know how to get Outlook Express works, and then Outlook can be used to send email.

    Any ideas?  Should what registry settings I do to get it working?  Thanks in advance...

    Tried the 'Safe Mode' and I did not.  I then tried, something I should have tried earlier, to "fix" everything.  Popped in the DVD, and when it was done the work now send very well.   Resource very well... Thank you!!

  • I can't find my outlook express address book after you migrate successfully from the old computer. The "Address book" tab shows that local address book empty.

    I move from a Windows XP computer to a Windows 7 computer. My old computer has Outlook Express. I've migrated successfully my emails and messages archived in Thunderbird on the new computer. I also migrated the Outlook Express address book using an external hard drive, but I was not able to understand how to find the Outlook Express address book in Thunderbird. The only way that I could find the Outlook Express address book, is to go to 'tools' and 'import' and then import the Outlook Express address book. When I do this, the Outlook Express address book features, duplicate entries (because I imported twice now). When the Outlook Express address book shows, it works without problems and I can use it to send emails. But once I close the Outlook Express address book, I can't find him. Other messages, I see that the "Address book" tab in Thunderbird should open a window containing a list of available on the left side address books. But this window in my computer does not display a list of address books. There is just a blank window for the address book personal (it has no contacts inside) and there is nothing on the left side.

    in the display (alt + V) address book menu > layout > directory pane.
