Hello,
The default store location of outlook express for messages and folders is
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Application
Data\Identities\{1E0B323A-5D34-4C75-BD04-5A7F3C863DE9}\Microsoft\Outlook
Express
You will all folders with .dbx extension. If the files in your pen drive are
with .dbx extension, simply copy them on to the store location.
Best regards,

Subject: [AI] Reviving Old Outlook Express Account And Importing Folders And
Addressbook From Pen Drive
Hello friends, Hope you are in the finest of all fine things. Some
time back, I had to re install Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2
on my system. But, before doing that, I took backup of my messages and
addressbook from Outlook Express on to my pen drive.
Friends suggested mainly two methods for that perpose:--
the first one was to go to c:\programfiles\outlookexpress, and copy
paste all files from there on to the pen drive.
According to the second method, I was advised to open outlook
express, go to export submenu and hit enter, then select and coppy all
the folders in Outlook express and paste them in windows run dialog.
Then I again selected them from their and pasted them in my pen Drive.
There they are being shown as dbx files.
In order to take backup of my addressbook, I again went to
export submenu in Outlook express and hit enter. then I hit down arrow
in order to save the file as comma sepparated values. Then I coppied
and pasted these files in an other folder in my pen drive.
Now, as I have installed windows xp sp 2 and all necessary
software, kindly guide me step by step as to how I can revive my old
Outlook Express Account and import the address book and other folders
from the pen drive. Hope you will oblige with an early solution to
this.
Regards.
Yogesh.
