Windows Mail reset / delete the contents of the folder when you restart

After more than a year of use of Windows Mail - all my messages and account information is missing.  I have rebuilt them, only to see them disappear after restarting my computer.

Contacts and mail rules are still there, but my files and mail is gone.  Show rules with a red X because the destination folder is gone.

It seems that the content of the: Mail C:\Users\...\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows

are deleted and rebuilt at some point during the restart process.  I tried to change the location of storage in Windows mail, but that setting gets also brought back on reboot.

I don't know if this is normal, but the folder where messages are supposed to be appear in blue.

Thanks a lot for all ideas.

Search for antivirus interference.  See www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3
 
You can also consider trying to create a different user account and see if Winmail works very well under that user.

Thank you Sandra,.

These steps have not solved the problem.

On other experiences - it looks like all the content of the

C:\Users\*user*\AppData\Local\Microsoft

are getting deleted on reboot - that includes information from Windows Mail.  If I change the storage location of e-mail to something outside this directory, it records everything.  But is not really solve my problem because I think there are other things stored in this folder that should stay around.

Any ideas on this issue?

Thank you

  • Error: "Windows could not complete the format" when you try to write to blank DVDs

    I get this error when you try to copy files to a blank DVD.  I am trying to drag and drop files into the dvd player and after a small roar, the dvd ram drive stops and the error message.  Then the drive no longer recognizes blank dvd inside.  I am running Vista 32 bit and my dvd ram is a matshita dvd - ram uj880as ata.  I tried to switch to the microsoft 'FixIt' site, but the problem is not resolved.  I think that the report mentioned that the reader could recognize not writable or something to that extent.  The player can play DVDs fine, however.  Is there a solution to this problem by replacing the dvd ram drive?

    Hello

    Have you tried to close all programs and then insert the disc to see what is happening? Try a slower
    speed or mastered format. Have you added any burning new software lately - these tend to compete
    for resources and can interfere with each other.

    Should which CD or DVD format I use?
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/which-CD-or-DVD-format-should-I-use

    ====================================

    You have disk problem as the CD/DVD is actually 4 discs in 1 case (burn CD & DVD and CD and DVD read).
    Therefore, it is not unusual for 1 or 2 rooms with not so work that others do it properly.

    Burning at low speed, or by using the master could help. A CD/DVD cleaner might help.

    CD have a tolerance + - and you can write on the outside edge.

    Try this troubleshooting:

    Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double-click on the device - driver tab - click
    Update the drivers (this will probably do nothing) - then RIGHT click the drive - UNINSTALL - REBOOT
    This will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue below.

    Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a loose cable or
    slight corrosion on the contacts (usually for a laptop) and other issues.

    Another possibility is that the cables are loose. Remove ALL power, then make sure that the cables in both

    contacts data with a pencil eraser.

    Hope these helps.

  • The bottom of my windows are obscured by the taskbar when you maximize their

    I have windows 7 and recently, the taskbar has begun to obscure the bottom of my windows, for example, when an excel document is opened and maximized, you can't access the different worksheets because they are hidden behind the taskbar.  I don't know happened.  I tried to solve this problem with auto-hide task bar settings, but found this very annoying that this means that I do not see my taskbar or it keeps popping up or endangered, which is annoying.  I don't want to restore my computer earlier if possible.  Y at - it a simple explanation of the non-geek I can follow easilly on how to solve this problem, because I find it so boring.  Thank you

    Thanks to all who responded, solve the problem himself after that I stopped my lap top and restarted again.  The reason that I had which was earlier that it will turn off no matter how many times I tried to stop.  So I finally just kept my finger on the power switch until it finally stopped and now I don't have a problem with windows optimize behind the taskbar.  Very happy.

  • Computer will not use the drive when you restart.

    I have a Pavilion dv 9000 and had problems more and more lately (win explorer fails, application launcher fail, blue screens, crashes etc.).

    I decided to use the recovery disk that was created at first boot. According to all the manuals that I found (on - and offline), it is just to put the recovery disk in the DVD-ROM and restart.

    The problem is that nothing happens. The computer does not use the disk when it reboots.

    Anyone experienced the same problem with the recovery disk?

    I'm not having any other problems with the ROM, works perfektly once Windows is running.

    Thank you

    You may need to change the BIOS to do first the CD drive in the boot sequence to boot from the CD.  To do this, hold the screen that tells you the key F to push to enter the menu start or start of installation.  Push it quickly. Make the changes, save your work and exit.  Put the CD in the drive and reboot.  When you are prompted, press any key to boot from the CD.

    I hope this helps.

  • HP Jet 13: could not get the usable screen after you enter the password when you restart

    After reboot I get the standard wallpaper (like the rings of Saturn), hour, day, week, month, and day, wifi bars and battery.  After the press, I have the icon pushing, my name, email and password.  By entering the password I get the points surrounding white and WELCOME, then by default in the screen with only sûr white pointer visiible.

  • ADF: How to get the path of the file when you use component InputFile

    Hi all

    I use jdeveloper 11.1.1.5.0 version.

    in my case, I created program Mail Client mail where I used the ADF InputFile component for attach file mail.

    but problem is this return path only component InputFile from the file (only the filename get)

    and in my mailer class DataSource uses the full path name of file access.

    UploadedFile uploadfile=(UploadedFile) actionEvent.getNewValue();
         String fname= uploadfile.getFilename();//this line only get file name.
    

    so, how can I get the full path using adf InputFile component or any other way to respond to my request.

    Thank you

    Manish

    Try this (I did not, so I can't promise it will work):

    MimeBodyPart messageBodyPart = new MimeBodyPart(uploadFile.getInputStream());
    messageBodyPart .setFileName(uploadFile.getFilename());
    messageBodyPart.setContent(multipart);
    

    It does use the inputStream from the downloaded file as the content of the file attached. You shouldn't need a full path, since you're not going to use a file object to provide the content.  And it shouldn't be necessary to define the DataHandler.

    But if that doesn't work, I go back to my first answer.  Use uploadFile.getInputStream () to get the inputStream from the downloaded file, create an outputStream to write the file to the file system of the application server.  Then you have a file with a known path that you can subscribe to the DataHandler.  You can delete the file when you're done with him.

    This kind of behavior is very often due to antivirus.  You are using.  If its McAfee or Norton get rid of them completely.   There are others who are also incompatible.  Everything you try, make sure that the analysis of e-mail is disabled.   You can also try to repair the database and see if that helps (see www.oehelp.com/WMUtil/).  And see also www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3

  • All of my Windows Mail subfolders and the emails contained in disappeared mysteriously.

    original title: Windows Mail lost all subfolders

    All of my Windows Mail subfolders and the emails contained in disappeared mysteriously.  I closed Windows Mail with all folders and opening Windows Mail again the next day, only the default folders (Inbox, sent, etc.) were present.

    I created a new folder named "Test" that I can see has been saved in "C:\Users\San\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Mail\Local Folders" as well as other folders by default, but I can find no trace of my 20 folders + that I had previously.

    Help!

    Nobody knows what could have happened and if they might be elsewhere on the HARD drive?  I have run several searches looking for folder names, but so far have developed in white.
