When I downloaded and tried to install KB837009 from the Microsoft website, I
received a message that in order to install this update, Outlook Express
Service Pack 1 must be installed. My version of Outlook Express is
6.00.2800.1123. However, when I look for the list of files that have been
installed, seven (7) required files for SP1 are missing (Msimm.exe,
Oemig50.exe, Oemiglib.dll, wab.exe wabfind.dll, wabimp.dll and wagmig.exe).
To correct this problem, should I uninstall Outlook Express 6 from the
Control Panel Add/Remove Programs and then install Outlook Express SP1 from
Internet Explorer 6 SP1 (which is installed ) by adding the component Outlook
Express 6? I tried to repair and reinstall Internet Explorer 6 SP1, however,
neither of these two options helped. If I uninstall Outlook Express 6, I
assume that I will loose all my settings and data. If so, how do I back it
up and reinstall the data after I install Outlook Express 6 SP1? Thanks.
Paul.
