Copy the DVD to your HDD and remove the Read Only attribute. Open OE: File |
Import | Messages | MSOE6 and point to where you saved them.

Note that if Folders.dbx was not included, the import will fail.

I recently had to clean out my harddrive, but,before I did, I coppied all
my OE to a friends ext harddrive. He them coppied it to dvd. Now when I try
to put them back to OE, all it does when I click an icon is bring up OE.
How can I get these files back into OE?
