they do work in vista - also work in the search box - just ignore the
results it finds as you type.

outlook.exe /resetfolders

if the error is about not finding outlook.exe, you'll need to use the full
path to outlook. The easiest way when that happens is to find outlook.exe
in windows explorer and create a shortcut to it then edit the short
properties to add the switch. If you use switches much, place the shortcut
on quick launch or some place handy.

No, did not notice that. I do not remember but I do not think any of the
apparent failures related to syntax. Do these switches work wih Vista ?
(there is no run box in the default menu). Anyway the drop down menu is
back
the way I want, I have no idea why it changed or why it changed back
again.

Thanks for the tip.

Whoa....scary stuff. I never even heard of switches till now, much
less try one. Tried what you said...in search box...it did an
unsucessful search ...then switched to classic menu to get run box
...some other mesage indicating failure ....

Did you make sure there was a space in front of the slash?
