  The following versions of Microsoft Outlook are fully supported on Windows 7;

  • Outlook 2003
  • Outlook 2007
  • Outlook 2010 (when it came out)

  It is recommended to always update your version of Outlook directly after installation to take care of any question of incompatibility which have been corrected.

  Previous versions

• I use OUtlook Express for e-mail. Night that suddenly disappeared from the value of a full year of emails - for example from October 2011 to the today October 2012. How can I get back them?

  I have been using Outlook Express 6 for more than 20 years without a single problem so far. Value of a full year of emails has disappeared all of a sudden my box but all e-mail messages seem to be always in place of my sent folder.

  How can I recover these e-mails Inbox?

  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? :
  http://www.insideoe.com/FAQs/why.htm#compact
   
  Why mail disappears:
  http://www.insideoe.com/problems/bugs.htm#mailgone
   
  Recovery methods:
   
  If you are running XP/SP3, 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:
  http://www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3 
   
  And backup often.

• Problems during the upgrade of Windows 98 Service Release 2 for Windows XP Professional Service Pack 3

  Well, I have an old Dell Dimension that I wanted to use and I decided to upgrade from Win98 to WinXP Pro.

  In the process as soon as I start the upgrade process it gives me an error message"
  " Error 589FF5Ch" I checked around the Web sites and found nothing.

  If no response would be appreciated.

  E-mail * address email is removed from the privacy *.

  Thank you.

  Dear God. I can't believe how much a long time ago, I asked this question. Over 2 years later I see something in my Inbox (right now). Honestly, I know more ask this question.

  And more now, I would say try the upgrade to Windows 2000 if you happen to have a product key. Then go to Windows XP. If not, is it possible to restore Windows 98 updates? Perhaps the latest edition of Service causes a conflict with the upgrade. You be left with a clean cloth. I'm curious, that you still have a machine running Windows 98? What is the material/specs on this platform? I can't believe anyone is still out there running old technology like this to use out of it.

• How can I install and use outlook express as email scanned by default on windows xp?

  I scanned an article on Brother MFC-J270W and tried to send the article by e-mail. Blurb came "I want to make Outlook Express my dfault". I clicked Yes. Then an error message came up with error 0x800CCC0D # and I couldn't e-mail my digitized item. Help, please.

  You can not make OE your email client by default if you are not using OE. You can do the following and start using OE, but why don't you just save the scan to a Windows folder and then start a new message from Hotmail and fix it? Using OE with Hotmail is a chore, if you're not used to it.

• Computer hangs until the e-mail sent by using Outlook Express

  I can't use my computer until I have send an email via Outlook Express.  The mouse can click on things on my desktop, but nothing is open until an email is sent.

  From the Start button, the cursor flashes on Internet and e-mail but does not come to rest.  When Outlook Express is started, my Inbox restores the oldest email rather than the last email and I can't scroll down until an email is sent.

  Once an email is sent, all is well in my computer and I can use my desktop icons, click on things in my Inbox, etc..

  This has happened for the past two months.  Any ideas or suggestions?

  If you have created a new e-mail address and password, why don't you know the password?

  What is a POP3 account? The password will be the same as the one you use on your Webmail site.

  Right click on the desktop | New | Shortcut. Go to the * c:\program files\outlook express\msimn.exe *. Click next | Click Finish.  It will be a new shortcut on the desktop.
