Default Outlook Express 6 download

Does anyone know where i can download OE6? It was deleted from my PC. i
cannot find the download anywhere i have looked. Either i am blind or the
program is no longer available (because of the move to Vista?). i still have
it on my laptop. Not sure if i can copy it to the PC. Thanks.

You cannot run Outlook Express using Vista. Vista uses Windows Mail.

Bruce - thanks for the reply. i do not have Vista and am still using Windows
XP. (i see how i was confusing in my original post) i am looking to get OE6
back onto my PC via a download. It looks like this is no longer possible.
Or do you know where it can be found? Is there a way to copy it from my
laptop? thanks.

OE6 is imbedded in your installation CD. You already have it, (somewhere).

Did you scrutinize Start | All Programs?

Control Panel | Add/Remove Programs | Add/Remove Windows Components. Is
Outlook Express checked? If not, check it and reboot. Is it in All Programs
now?

If not:

Right click on the Desktop | New | Shortcut. Browse to *C:\Program
Files\Outlook Express\MSIMN.EXE* Click Next | Click Finish. A new shortcut
will be on the desktop.

i thought we had it, but no cigar.
i have looked at ALL PROGRAMS and the subfolders of each program. Nothing.
i tried lookinf for a/r Windows Components but could not find it. (This
scares me a little more.)
i did find Windows Media player, but it is not listed in my All Programs and
i can't launch it either.
i tired creating the shortcut found the folder but no EXE (only DLLs)(and
i found my address book which is a HUGE relief - THANKS!)
i am looking for the install disc now. if i find it, do i have to do a
complete reinstall? Could i delete IE 7 and reload IE 6 which used to have
OE6? thanks a ton for your help.

How to Reinstall or Repair IE6 and OE6:
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=318378

I believe IE7 and SP3 will need to be removed. this is a KB article that
will probably never be updated.

Msimn is a hidden file.
Create a shortcut and type the path to "C:\Program Files\Outlook
Express\MSIMN.EXE" .

Try this:
Start, Run, msimn, OK.
If OE starts, then create the shortcut.

Always state your full Windows version (e.g., WinXP SP3) when posting to
this newsgroup, please.

Control Panel | Add/Remove Programs | Add/Remove Windows Components |
Outlook Express =is this listed and checked?

Is Windows Live Mail and/or MS Outlook also installed?

this could be it, but..... When i go Control Panel Add Remove Programs i
can find IE7, but i cannot get an option to delete or change the program. i
only support information. Also i cannot find IE7 in my list of programs or
the icon on my desktop or in the task bar. But i can launch it with a short
cut key on my keyboard. How do i delete it? and if i do, how do i get online
again? thanks.
