Default the folder is currently in use by Outlook Express or by another ap

I started OE, mark work offline, close OE, start again,

Do not close OE after "mark work offline".


Try compacting this way.......

Start OE, mark work offline, then on File menu select Folder, on it's
expanding menu choose Compact All Folders.
