Outlook Express missing
My outlook express 6.0 suddenly went missing. The program file is not to be
found anywhere on the computer, even after using the search function. Only the address book is available on the desktop and the program file folder. However, when I opened Microsoft Outlook, and tried to import my mail from outlook express, it managed to get all my mails and address as well as mail accoutn settings from somewhere. I am unable to re-install IE or outlook express, as I am using the IE7 beta version and the installation file refuses to let me re-install outlook express. Please let me know if there is any way in which I can get outlook express to work again. My operating system is windows XP home, I have a P4 machine. Thanks in advance. |

You searched for msimn.exe?
That is the real name of Outlook Express. "Micheal" Micheal @discussions.microsoft.com wrote in message ... My outlook express 6.0 suddenly went missing.

Outlook Express missing
I hadn't originally. After you suggested it, I did another search, and found
2 files, "26_MSIMN" under "C:\WINDOWS\Packs\SysFiles", and another "msimn" under "C:\WINDOWS\ServicePackFiles\i386". If I try to open "26_MSIMN" it comes out with the error message "outlook express could not be started becasue MSOE.DLL could not be found. Outlook Express may not be installed correctly" However, if I open "msimn", outlook express opens but does not display the splash screen with outlook express 6, instead it displays a linux icon in a splash screen. Can I continue using the "msimn" program, or should I do something else? "DGuess" wrote: You searched for msimn.exe? That is the real name of Outlook Express.

It should be in Program Files\Outlook Express
If not, see Frank's reply "Micheal" wrote in message ... I hadn't originally.
