EML Files - Missing .exe file
I have received emails with .emf attachments. I understand that I need to
associate this file extension with msimx.exe, but this file is missing from my Outlook Express folder. How do I install this missing .exe file?

EML Files - Missing .exe file
Do you have one of the programs for Windows listed here?
http://www.fileinfo.net/extension/emf If you do: Save the attachment to your HDD. Right click on it and Open With | Choose Program. Find and choose a program that works and then check the box: Always use this program to open this kind of file. This should enable you to open these attachments in the future. If you don't have a program listed, here is the site for IrfanView.

EML Files - Missing .exe file
C:\Program Files\Outlook Express\. There is no msimn in the right hand pane?
msimn.exe /is/ Outlook Express. Ctrl+Alt+Delete, Processes tab. You don't have msimn.exe listed when OE is running? I may be wrong since I have never had an .emf file to open, but from what I see in searching, you need one of these programs, just as you need Power Point Viewer to open a .pps attachment. -- Bruce Hagen MS-MVP Outlook Express Imperial Beach, CA "CJP338" wrote in message news  I need the missing msimx.exe file?

EML Files - Missing .exe file
The .exe file is not in the OE folder but it is running in Task Manager... I
found it under a folder called i386. I've associated the file with this, but when I try to open the .eml file now, it closes the original mail it is attached to and nothing else happens...

EML Files - Missing .exe file
msimn.exe is not in i386.
msimn.ex_ is in i386. You can't associate .eml files to msimn.ex_ . msimn.exe is in C:\Program Files\Outlook Express. It is a system file, so it is probably hidden. Save an .eml file to your hard drive. Right click on the .eml file, Open With, select Outlook Express or Browse to C:\Program Files\Outlook Express and select msimn.exe. Check 'Always use this program'. -- Ronald Sommer "CJP338" wrote in message ... The .exe file is not in the OE folder but it is running in Task Manager... I found it under a folder called i386.
