Brat, you should specify a subject with your message.

When you re-install Microsoft Windows over itself (for example, if you do not use the format or parallel installation methods), Outlook Express may append new configurations and mail to the end of existing .dbx files. However, when you run Outlook Express, it only displays the mail that you received after you re-installed Windows; it appears as if all of the older mail is lost.


MORE INFORMATION
Outlook Express stores mail in several .dbx files that are located in the Windows\Application Data\Identities\hexadecimal_string\Microsoft\Outlook Express folder. The Inbox.dbx file contains mail that is displayed in the Inbox folder in Outlook Express, the Outbox.dbx file contains mail that is displayed in the Outbox folder, the Drafts.dbx file contains mail that is displayed in the Drafts folder, and so on.

If you re-install Windows by running Setup from the Windows installation media and you have not previously renamed the Windows folder or formatted the disk, the original Outlook Express .dbx files are retained. However, when you subsequently restart the new Windows installation and run Outlook Express, Outlook Express does not display the mail in the appropriate folders. Instead, Outlook Express displays only the mail that is dated later than the most recent Windows installation.


To restore mail that you received before you re-installed Windows, follow these steps:

1.. Copy the .dbx files from the Windows\Application Data\Identities\hexadecimal_string\Microsoft\Outlook Express folder to another temporary location.
 2..

Note When you copy the .dbx files, make sure that you include the Folders.dbx file. If you do not include this file, Outlook Express will not recognize the data when you try to import the data. 3.. Start Outlook Express, click Import on the File menu, and then click Messages to start the Import Wizard. 4.. In the Select Program dialog box, click Outlook Express as the e-mail program from which to import, and then click Next. 5.. In the next dialog box, click Import mail from an OE store directory, and then click OK. 6.. Locate the temporary location of the .dbx files, and then select the files that you want to import. Outlook Express should begin to import the old mail and to create or to populate folders.

In some situations, you may be able to import directly from the default location into Outlook Express. OE Inbox.dbx

Hi, sure would appreciate help. Running J16 and win10 home. Latest j16, haven't upgradsh to 17 yet. Would like some opinions on which email program works best with win10 and I realize this is opinion-based. Someone I didn't get my outlook express over when I went from win7 to 10. I created a full image on an external drive? Is there a way to get my email back from it? Or, perhaps from DBX files?

Almost done honest. How do I get to system restore in win10? And, how do I get Itunes to work? I believe I was on the latest version with Itunes but can't get it to work at all. Thanks for any and all help.
