Trying to help a friend out. He had a crash, lost some files. We used the recovery CD that came with his computer and got it back up and running. He thought that now would be a good time to UPGRADE from WINDOWS ME to WINDOWS XP so we did, but some folders were missing from his Outlook Express. He had created some folders to seperate his e-mail. These folders are gone. I've found some .dbx files with the same name as his lost folders but they won't open. I draged them to the folder that it looks like they belong in but still can't get them to open. I even created folders with the same name as the missing ones but they're empty. How can I get these .dbx files back to the folder that they belong in. It looks like there are two sets of .dbx files for his Outlook Express. Maybe one from Win ME and one from Win XP? Any help would be welcome. Thanks.
