restore the compact emails from windows vista, how can I now read the

I must have accidentally agreed to compact my email so that all my files or emails that I wanted to keep disappeared.

I have managed to locate them via windows Explorer, but cannot open them.

I get the message: windows cannot open this file: winmail.fol

Another way, I tried, I found WindowsMail.MSMessageStore Type: file MSMESSAGESTORE 4120 KB
Once again the message windows cannot open this file.

I hope someone can help me?

Hi helpsue,

Please take a look at the thread similar here and post Marilyn O.  The wire is for Windows 7, but its links are worth for Vista as well.

I hope this helps!

  • Windows Vista - How can I move the buttons in the taskbar to the left side of the taskbar?

    Windows Vista - How can I move the buttons in the taskbar to the left side of the taskbar? Someone has used my computer and now they are on the right side you can see 2 programs at once. I want that they start on the left and run through the whole (not just two value windows) task bar so I can see all and switch between them by clicking on them.

    Right-click on the taskbar and unlock it. There will be low vertical bars between the sections of the taskbar. Place the cursor on one and drag it to the left. You have to play a little, but you will get it.

  • Windows Vista how can I get to the bottom of the start menu?

    I have a problem, "Start menu" I like there to the top instead of the bottom in windows vista. I don't know how to take it down. If any of you guyz has an idea, please report it here.

    Hello

    I guess your taskbar is on the top of the screen instead of the bottom? If that's what you hear, right-click the taskbar and select "lock the tasbar" to unlock it (if it is not already unlocked). To check f it is locked, there will be a checkbox next to "lock the taskbar". If there is no check box, it is already unlocked.

    Once unlocked, just drag the taskbar to its current position to the bottom of the screen where you normally and then lock the taskbar.

    Kind regards

    Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

    This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

    This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

    -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
    For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
    Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
    http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

    For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
    Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
    your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
    Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
    Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

    Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
    with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

    Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
    Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
    BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

    Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
    each installation.

    Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
    presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
    in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
    necessary.

    Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
    manually by model.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

    get new manually if you wish.

  • I have Windows Vista, how can I take a message in my Hotmail and put it on a CD

    I just updated my laptop to 9 Windows Vista Buisness, I received an EMail in my Hotmail I want to put on a CD, but after I click on the button burn, I get a message that I can't copy a mail on a CD. No there is no way to do this?

    Hello Richard,.

    If we are unable to burn the e-mail, we save the page and then burn the file saved on a CD.

    Another solution would be to support on Ctrl + A , while in the message.  We could then press Ctrl + C and move on to a word processor such as Microsoft Word or Wordpad program.  Once there, us would support Ctrl + V and the e-mail content is copied in the word-processing program.  We could then save the file and burn it to a CD.

    Let us know if you have any questions.

    Best regards

  • All my applications disappeared from Windows 8 - How can I recover the

    My Apps 'all' page disappeared, all the apps page is empty; in Windows 8. Why?

    How to recover?

    More troubleshooting led me to the exact program of Epson:

    Summary of the problem: after installing the NX530 Epson Stylus printer for win 8-64 - bit, my screen driver package all THE APPS emptied and jump backward, made things unstable, such as the splash screen was bleeding and if nothing else has been opened, I could go anywhere and had to push the button reboot on my computer...

    Solution: The Epson Driver pack installs 7 programs, which is the browser to download Epson. After uninstalling this program, everything was back to normal. This has happened on two different computers (one AMD, another Intel) with the same result. I tried to reinstall by itself, but it messes up WIN 8 when installed...

  • UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME during the upgrade to Windows 7 from Windows Vista

    I'm getting an unmountable_boot_volume during the upgrade to Windows 7 from Windows Vista.  It occurs after Windows 7 software loads and restarts.  If I restart the computer, I have the option to start the upgrade to Windows 7 or Windows Vista.  If I select Windows Vista, the computer restarts without problem.  If I choose Windows 7 Upgrade, I get the blue screen of death with the unmountable_boot_volume error.  Of course, nothing wrong with the boot volume because Windows Vista starts without error.  The boot drive is 1.5 TB.  Any suggestions on how to accomplish the upgrade to Windows 7?
