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.
