How do I get my deleted folder back?
I accidentally deleted an entire folder in OE instead of deleting just the
single message I had intended. After checking both the web service, and my ISP's own mail client for the folder (no luck), I contacted the ISP, who promised to try to recover it, but it's been over 24 hours since my contact to them--and nothing. Is there a way to get this folder back? |

Good thought Alias. It's not there, but I did find the Outlook Express
folder, and--while the deleted folder doesn't show up by name--it may be in another one of the folders there. What program opens a DBX file?

Is there a way to get this folder back? If you are running Win2K, WinXP or Win2K3 then DBXtract will find any messages on the hard drive that have not actually been overwritten. www.oehelp.com -- Frank Saunders, MS-MVP OE/WM Reply in newsgroup "They who would give up an essential liberty for temporary security, deserve neither liberty or security" |

DBXtract does not have the capability of analyzing the entire hard drive.
Only DBXpress (www.oehelp.com/DBXpress/) does this. And it he has an intact dbx file, which seems unlikely, he can manually import it via the method in the last paragraph he www.oehelp.com/backup.aspx , which doesn't require purchasing a 3rd party program. But that is only if the file is not corrupt. steve "Frank Saunders, MS-MVP OE" wrote in message ... "malarkey" wrote in message ...

What program opens a DBX file? Only Outlook Express. If the deleted folder isn't there, you'll need to use an extract program like DBXtract. Now you know that back up is a computer user's best friend. A good, free back up for OE can be found at: http://www.oehelp.com/OEBackup/Default.aspx Alias "--Alias--" wrote in message ... malarkey wrote: I accidentally deleted an entire folder in OE instead of deleting just the single message I had intended.
