Hi all,
Yesterday, I accidently deleted the folders with emails of a friend who had somehow managed to put all there folders in the Deleted Items section. I emptied this section without realising these folders were in there. Is there a way to recover these folders and emails? If so, would someone please point me in the right direction to a program or solution to deal with this? Many thanks for any assistance, Antony |

Do the dbx files for the folders still exist?
Tools | Options | MaintenanceStore folder will reveal the location of your Outlook Express files. Press the Tab key to highlight the folder location, then Ctrl+C. Close OE, then Start | Run | Ctrl+V will put the location in the box - Click OK and you'll see the OE files. Otherwise, write the location down and navigate to it in Windows Explorer. In Windows XP, 2K & 3K, the OE user files (DBX and WAB) are by default marked as hidden. To view these files in Explorer, you must enable Show Hidden Files and Folders under Start | Control Panel | Folder Options | View. In Windows Explorer, click on the file and drag it to the Desktop. Open OE and create a folder with the *exact* same name as the one on your desktop. ***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 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. -- Bruce Hagen MS MVP - Outlook Express ~IB-CA~ "Antony Addy" wrote in message ...

The only thing that will work at this point is DBXpress in the extract from
disk mode. It will pull the messages off the disk clusters. See www.oehelp.com/DBXpress/ Its the only program that will do this. steve "Antony Addy" wrote in message ...
