Snail Posted March 1, 2005 Report Share Posted March 1, 2005 Trying to update the old mans PC to XP from ME, and i cant find all his email and email settings, where are they on ME? He used both outlook and outlook express, but they dont seem to be in my docs, or the program files\outlook_XXX folders. TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin M Posted March 1, 2005 Report Share Posted March 1, 2005 Outlook Express stores the files as inbox.dbx, outbox.dbx etc whilst Outlook sticks it all in one .pst file, just search the drive for those extensions and you'll find them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frodo Posted March 1, 2005 Report Share Posted March 1, 2005 Something is nagging me that they maybe hidden files if you do a default search. But then I think I only used ME once so I could be talking rubbish. Otherwise Colin is correct as usual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin M Posted March 1, 2005 Report Share Posted March 1, 2005 Yes, you need to switch the search to "Advanced" to make sure it includes "system files". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
