Default Folder gone

Single folders do not import. Use this workaround.

In Windows Explorer, click on the file and drag it to the Desktop.


The only place the old save.dbx file was located was in the stored folder.
I dragged that file to the Desktop.

Open OE
and create a folder with the *exact* same name as the one on your desktop.


Did that.

***Copy a message from any folder to the new one. You MUST do this.***
Close OE. Go back to Windows Explorer and Click Desktop and drag the
folder


I dragged the file and not the folder.

from
the Desktop to the OE store folder that you clicked on to reveal the .dbx
files. Prompt - "Do you want to overwrite......."? Click Yes.


Did that. At this point I have dragged the FILE from the stored location
and then copied it back to the stored location.
