Hi Mike Thanks for your responses. I won't be working with my friends computer until Tuesday. But he has been using Outlook Express with AVG for a couple of weeks and it's been working fine. The only problem is that I cannot restore his previous emails and address book. Also thanks for the Revo instructions.

Also, hang on a little bit before installing OE6 while I check to see if there are any problems with running AVG & OE6. I'll let you know as soon as I find out. Take care.

I downloaded the OE installer from the internet, but don't remember the specific site. But when I can install it again, I believe I'm going to use the OE installer from the JAWS-Users programs page. The computer I'm working is using the free edition of AVG anti-virus. But thanks for the tip about Nod32. I don't recall if I used the run as administrator option from the context menu, or just logged on as an administrator. When you say that Revo can uninstall OE, I'm assuming that you're referring to the free version. I have read that you dumped the pro version, and after looking at it I can understand why. To uninstall using Revo, do I just enter the path and name of the .exe file for OE in the edit field and choose uninstall? Thanks again. ?P.S. Is the iBarstool compatible with any bar or is it proprietary and requires an iBar. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Mike B.

OE6 can also be uninstalled from Programs & Features or from the OE6 folder in Program Files X86 but, from past experience it's best to use Revo. Also, what antivirus are you running on this computer? Also, what OE6 installer are you running? Are you running the installer as the Administrator? It must be installed using the Admininstrator option from the context menu. Once the installation is complete it's necessary for the computer to be restarted to complete the installation. Have you looked in Users / Name Folder / App data / Local / Identities to see if default folders are installing Here? I ask about which antivirus because if you're running Vipre, Vipre has to be uninstalled before OE6 will install. Yes, I do mean uninstalled & not just turned off! &, if you're running Nod32, there is a settings change that needs to be made in the Nod32 menues. Take care.

But I must have done it improperly because I can't import messages and the address book from his old XP computer. I would like to completely uninstall Outlook Express from his new computer so I can re-install it properly. Since under Windows XP, Outlook Express was a Windows component instead of an application, there is no uninstallation entry for it, so it can't be uninstalled using Add/Remove Programs or cCleaner. Would it still be shown as a Windows Component in Windows 7? Could it be uninstalled using the Revo Uninstaller? If so, will the Free version of the Revo Uninstaller do the job on a 64 bit system? Thanks for the help.
