Default Outlook Express backup problem -- folders not re-instated

On backing up OE data folders and files into the designated backup folder I
have a problem in that, although the folders and files are visible in the new
backup folder created, these files and folders will not import back into OE.
Error messages telling me ' no messages are in this folder' or ' the selecte
folder can not be opened as another application or OE is using it'. I have
checked that all the folders and files required to be imported back into OE
are not 'read only' designated but still no import is possible. Has anybody
had this problem and , if so, what's the answer as this is not the first time
it has happened and I don't want to lose a host of files again !

This newsgroup is for support of Outlook
97/98/2000/2002/2003/2007 from the Office suite of products. Outlook
Express is actually a separate program despite the similar name.

For help with your OE questions, try an OE newsgroup such as
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6_outlooke xpress (for OE 6), or
an OE help website such as http://insideOE.tomsterdam.com. If you're
accessing the Microsoft newsgroups through the MS Product Support
Services "Community Newsgroups" web interface, click
http://www.microsoft.com/communities...ress.ge neral
Good luck!
