Looking for my Message Store

{651FEF03-F5AD-49E8-8735-3B1E6475A8FE} is your GUID, Globally Unique
IDentifier. Your identity in short.

I want you to backup OE just in case.

I don't have an OE folder to back up. That's why I asked that in my case,
you meant to back up all my .dbx files

Follow the instructions to move the store folder and move it to a new
folder on your C Drive. Any place is acceptable.

You can also try this. You said the folder in the path starting in
Documents and Settings had the OE folder, but it was empty?


The OE folder was mentioned in the path, but I couldn't get to it. I
couldn't get past the empty GUID file.

Expand that path in
Windows Explorer, but do not open the Outlook Express folder.

I can't get to the Outlook Express folder. (IF there is one)

Now, open the
folder where your current message store resides to get in the right hand
pane.

I don't know where my "current message store" resides as the path to it
leads only as far as an empty GUID folder
I think I may NOT HAVE a Message store now. I have the .dbx files, but they
only seem to be loated in a C:?backup file and on my External HD M:/

Use the right mouse key and drag it to the OE folder.

What OE folder? The only OE folder I can find is in my Program files.
When the OE
folder is blue, release the key and then chose Copy. Close everything and
then reopen Windows Explorer and navigate back to the OE message store
folder. Open it and see if the dbx files are now in there.

But *back up first*.

Hi Bruce,

So far, I'm coming to the conclusion that I should sort-of rebuild the
path to my store folder By:

1.Going to the empty {651FEF03-F5AD-49E8-8735-3B1E6475A8FE} folder (are
those brackets part of the folder name ?)
2. create a folder within that folder and call it "Microsoft"
3. Open the Microsoft folder and create a new folder in it called
"Outlook Express"
4. Using the procedure at the link you gave me
http://www.insideoe.com/faqs/how.htm#movestore and move the store into
that new "Outlook Express" folder.
What bothers me about that is that it seems to make that
seemingly-complex "Identity" meaningless.

I presume that your caution to back up OE before I start means, in my
case, to copy all my .dbx files to my backup media.

Thanks,

Fred

Hi,

I just searched on One of my dbx files and it shows up with all of my
e-mail dbx files (not my newsgroup dbx files) in a folder called
C:/BACKUP and also on my M:/ (external HD used for backup)

According to where my msg store is SUPPOSED to be I'd expect to have
found the dbx files in an Outlook Express folder.
I guess I'm messed up. How badly?

Hi,
The instructions you gave me show that the msg store is now located at:
Data\Identities\{651FEF03-F5AD-49E8-8735-3B1E6475A8FE}\Microsoft\Outlook
Express

However, the {651FEF03-F5AD-49E8-8735-3B1E6475A8FE} is EMPTY and does
not contain a Microsoft and/or an Outlook Express folder.

I try to be careful, and certainly didn't intentionally move the
message store.
I did a *.dbx search and came up with a list of all of my dbx files
.... so I guess my dbx files are there OK. How serious is the lack of
identity? (identity theft:-))

I'm a little confused. If the folder is empty, you must have moved the
message store, but the instructions I gave you to find it should show
where it is now.

Try a search for *.dbx and check Advanced Search and include Hidden
Files and Folders. See what you come up with.

Hi Bruce,

Following that, I get this address for my msg sto

C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Local Settings\Application
Data\Identities\{651FEF03-F5AD-49E8-8735-3B1E6475A8FE}\Microsoft\Outlook
Express
When I clicked OK see below *** It gives me the page of dbx icons
that I got when I used the "Favorites Link, but not the Microsoft or
Outlook Express folder.

Using Windows Explorer I come to the same dead end where I get to the
{651FEF03-F5AD-49E8-8735-3B1E6475A8FE} folder and it's EMPTY.

I don't really understand this stuff. Is it possible that my identity
has disappeared, and if so is that a disaster?

Can I create a new folder called Outlook Express, copy all of those
dbx files into it , then copy the new OE folder to my backup disk?

Thanks,
Fred

Tools | Options | Maintenance | Store Folder will reveal the
location of your Outlook Express files. Press the Tab key to
highlight the folder location, then Ctrl+C. Close OE, then Start |
Run | Ctrl+V will put the location in the box - ***Click OK and
you'll see the OE files.*** Otherwise, write the location down and
navigate to it in Windows Explorer.

In WinXP, Win2K & Win2K3, the OE user files (DBX and WAB) are by

Hi,
I'm looking for my message store to back it up, as I've done a few
times in the past.

C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Application
Data\Identities\{651FEF03-F5AD-49E8-8735-3B1E6475A8FE}

When I follow this address, I get to the Identities, click on it
and see the folder {651FEF03-F5AD-49E8-8735-3B1E6475A8FE}, The
problem is that folder shows as empty. I think in the past,
clicking on that folder would show a 'Microsoft" folder, which when
opened would have an 'Outlook Express' folder.

Sometime in the past, when at my message store I made it a
"Favorite" page. When I click on that favorites link I get to a
page that contains icons for all of my dbx files. I suppose I can
Select All and copy all of those to my external HD used for backup,
but was hoping to get to the Outlook Express folder and copy that
whole folder to backup.
Can someone set me straight on this?

Thanks, .... Fred

Hi Bruce,
It's way past my bedtime and I'm beat. Not knowing how late you'll be there,
or whether you're already done for the night I think I'll call it a night.
I appreciate your help so far and I'll tackle it again tomorrow. I think I
have no OE folder and no real customary "store". I think OE is finding the
dbx files on my computer (they're all there, but not where you'd expect to
find them. I just want to go slow and careful on this so I don't really
screw things up worse than they are. Although the files aren't where they
should be, everything works.

Thanks and good night,

Fred

Open the registry editor to the appropriate GUID for the identity involved
and check this key for the location where the program is searching for the
message store folder:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Identities\{GUID}\Software\Micro soft\Outlook Express\5.0

and look in the right hand pane for the "Store Root" and check the location
shown there which can be edited to a new store folder if needed. Be careful
working in the registry as you can make the system and programs unworkable
if you make an error.

Since you are not familiar with using the registry editor, I'd suggest you
start with some reading of the basics. Try the info at this link:

Thanks, Jim,

Besides being 'not familiar" I'm 78, and the grey matter is now a very light
grey.
I opened regedit and clicked on help and tried a search for
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Identities and got nowhere, so I haven't even been able to
view what the current settings are yet. I'll keep reading and will try to
absorb the 'basics' and will report back in a week or so.

Thanks,

Fred

PS Meantime is there any merit to my suggestion that I should:
1. Create a new folder called 'Microsoft' in the empty GUID folder.
2. Create a new folder called 'Outlook Express' in the new 'Microsoft'
folder
3.Follow the instructions (given by Bruce)to move the store folder and move
it to a new
folder on your C Drive. Any place is acceptable How about my newly
created 'Outlook Express' folder?
That would seem to recreate the path that WAS my default location of the
store folder

Thanks, F.

to view what the current settings are yet. I'll keep reading and will try
to absorb the 'basics' and will report back in a week or so.

Thanks,

Fred

PS Meantime is there any merit to my suggestion that I should:
1. Create a new folder called 'Microsoft' in the empty GUID folder.
2. Create a new folder called 'Outlook Express' in the new 'Microsoft'
folder
3.Follow the instructions (given by Bruce)to move the store folder and
move it to a new
folder on your C Drive. Any place is acceptable How about my newly
created 'Outlook Express' folder?
That would seem to recreate the path that WAS my default location of the
store folder

Thanks, F.

Since you are not familiar with using the registry editor, I'd suggest
you start with some reading of the basics. Try the info at this link:

Good luck and be careful when working in the registry.

registry editor and got:
. To open Registry Editor, click Start, click Run, type , and then
click OK.

Thanks, ... Fred

My suggestion is to create a new folder and move your current store folder.
Follow the directions under Preparation for moving the Store Folder.
