ToolsOptionsMaintenanceStore folder will reveal the location
of your Outlook Express files. Press the Tab key to highlight the folder
location, then Ctrl+C. Close OE, then StartRunCtrl+V will put the location
in the box - Click OK and you'll see the OE files. Otherwise, write the
location down and navigate to it in Windows Explorer.

In WindowsXP, 2K & 3K, the OE user files (DBX and WAB) are by default
marked as hidden. To view these files in Explorer, you must enable
Show Hidden Files and Folders under StartControl PanelFolder
OptionsView.

try getting a free dbx viewer from snapfish.com to try to find and recover
lost (maybe) OE files.

I did all that and installed a program (freeware) called OE View but now I
don't know where to look in the computer.

I"ve looked in the Outlook Express folder in the Program Files folder but
no dbx files or any kind of OE database.

Where the Sam Hill are the OE emails stored on the computer?? What
directory? Anybody know?
