Hi everyone. I just want to thank all of you who offered suggestions for solving my problem of getting We back up and running on my Toshiba laptop. The suggestions were appreciated and led to my getting We 9.5.4 for office up and running again. I also want to thank all of those who have set up this list to protect We users from potentially damaging shutdown of the original WE list. Users on this list are really good and have lots of experience to help others. My laptop is now running quite well. For the record, I also got lots of help from the MS accessibility desk. In the end, with their help, I did a Windows repair and then had to reinstall a number of apps including WE. Just this evening, I called the Ms accessibility desk again because after repairing Windows, I discovered that Mcafee anti virus was now on my machine. What a mess that product is for those who cannot see. It was really dragging down my system. I tried uninstalling it from the add/remove programs panel but immediately ran into a window that neither WE or Narrator would read. So, the Ms desk did it for me and now, guess what, the machine is humming along just fine.
Now for a couple of questions. When I reinstalled Thunderbird, I got most of the settings back to where they were but I also remember that there were a couple of things that had to be changed using the TB config utility. Does anyone remember what thosechanges were? Also, after reinstalling TB, I discovered that my mailboes on both outlook.com and gmail.com were still there. However, I had many messages in local folders, and in fact, I am sure I had the messages describing the TB changes I am asking about. Those local folders are gone. However, before doing the windows repair, I did a backup. So, if I can find the folders on the backed up data, is there a way to bring them and the messages back into TB? Sorry for such a long email and thanks for any help any of you can offer.
