when I checked my computer today I discovered that my imported folders list is no longer showing up in Windows Mail. It is not just hidden, it has completely disappeared. It does not even show up when I check under my appdata user profile in the C: drive. Any ideas where it may have gone? It contains about 10 years of important emails.

After a reboot I have lost all the folders in Windows Mail. I just have the received mail shown. So no Inbox, Outbox, Sent; Deleted, Junk etc. Never had this happen before or know of anyone who has? See attached file
View 9 Replies View RelatedLocal Folders created to store mail messages such as, receipts for online payments, passwords, etc. have been disappearing. I did not delete them and can't find information related to saved folders or options related to saving email messages. Sending/receiving emails works fine and since the files were stored for many months without an issue, I have to conclude it is a problem with Windows Mail. Formerly I used XP/Outlook Express and had no issue with email saved in local folders. I would like to recover my local files.

When permanetely deleting 1 folder it deletes the folders below and they seem gone forever. Searched for emails and folders and they are gone. Must be on the drive somewhere (forensics?)
View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm new to Windows Mail. Have noted numerous exchanges on this and other forums re problems with constant prompting for compacting. Have not found any referring to my situation. I want to compact folders. When responding 'OK' to prompt, I receive notification thatprocess is starting with back up then I get another message advising 'folder is already in use by Windows Mail or by another application'. Have tried pausing virus protection but this makes no difference.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm using Windows Mail that is "connected" to my Verizon account. Months ago I created subfolders to archive older emails. I diligently moved them into this folder. I also created another subfolder under the archived folder as well. I've had what I can only call "mysterious" issues where e-mails appear and them moments later, they are gone from my inbox. I thought I had the issue (simplistically) solved by diligently moving new items into the archive folder immediately.
Now (12/26/09) those subfolders are gone. They are not under any other folder in Windoes Mail. What is very odd (and there's quite a lot) is that I did find a lot of them now back in my Inbox but not all. The archived folders I created were under the Inbox folder as a subfolder. I don't think this has anything to do with views.
I am having problems downloading IMAP folders into Windows Mail. It asks me for a username and password, so I enter my details as per login into webmail. However, it says the following: "The server has rejected your login. Please verify that your username and password are correct. Login failed.

How do you mark folders read in Windows Mail? In Thunderbird, for instance, if you right click on a folder you get a drop down box with one of the options being to mark the folder read. How can that be done in WM without clicking on each message individually to mark it as read. Sometimes I keep a group of messages as not read. Then when I'm finished with them, I mark them as read.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI've been getting by with Windows Mail for a while, but miss Outlook from when I last had it. Windows Mail just seems so slow and klugy by comparison--and the Calendar is also usable, but annoying. What do you all think? Outlook worth the investment for someone who is a heavy user with their own business?

View 5 Replies View RelatedVista SP1 install I had to reinstall (not restore) the entire system much to my regret. In the process I added a newsgroup account in Windows Mail and downloaded my regular newsgroups but could not find alt.binaries.food which I have been reading for quite some time (And in fact still reading it on a XP machine with OE so I know the group is alive and active).
After messing with it for over a day I chatted with EarthLink and other than to say its a "Vista problem" they provided no real help or direction. When I Google "missing alt.binaries.food and Vista" there are an amazing number of people with the same apparent problem description but no proposed or found solutions.
Then I added Thunderbird to the Vista system this afternoon and viola, alt.binaries.food is there alive and well. So it doesn't appear to be this computer but rather either something in Windows Mail or my setup. Does anyone have a clue? Or does this seem to point in some direction to the group?
Emails are sent and arrive in my Windows Mailbox fine. I then create a folder and drag them to that folder no problems. When I create a subfolder however, and start dragging emails into the subfolder I find that the 1st email is fine but every subsequent one has been corrupted. That is to say that in each case the email content is erased and replaced with a duplication of the 1st email in that subfolder. Go figure. The email titles don't change so if you open the subfolder you
wouldn't realise what has happened.
It is only when you open each successive email that it becomes apparent that the content of every email has become identical. *Windows Mail folders: 1 email duplicates itself over all others in a folder, thereby erasing email content of all others* This was previously posted by two others and I have exactly the same problem.
My harddrive had to be replaced. The Geek Squad did it. I paid $99. for them to copy all my data. The disk they gave me contains all my Internet favorites. When I click on them they say they are invalid. Any way to get these to work? Also they copied my Windows mail contacts... how do I get these into the mail program. What a job this is, getting things back to normal.

I have tried rebooting, I have tried going into layout and making sure the folder list is checked but it will just not come back. They folders are still there as I can get to them through the folder bar option. If I uncheck the folders list box the folder bar shows a drop done menu with the folders.

View 6 Replies View Relatedi am unable to make new folders via right click. When i do right click and select new, the submenu only says (empty) in gray. I have no options on creating a new folder, file etc. Ive tried using the folder fix registry thing to no available correction. Also, im not sure if its related, but 1/2 of my start menu is missing as well.
When i click start, all the immediate programs in the list are empty, its just a giant white box, but if i choose like programs etc stuff shows up, what gives? I run the avg free antivirus and malwarebytes as well and neither find anything. Id rather not do a restore either as im not sure really when it started.

this is driving me crazy! I have now experienced this 3-4 times. It happens all of a sudden, and is scary. Some or most of my data suddenly disappears from my user folder (C:/users/username). First time it happened immediately after I installed Spyware Doctor, back in April, when they first released the x64 version. I have since restored all the data, and uninstalled Spyware Doctor. However, it happened again. The last two times, it just happened. I simply noticed that I had much more free space on my C drive (40GB more than the day before).
Last weekend, it mostly affected my photos, but other folders were missing also. I am running x64, on a HP machine with 6GB RAM. Luckaly, I perform multiple backups (TrueImage and Ghost), as well as Mozy. In each case I was able to restore all data, but it takes time, and more importantly, I don't trust my computer. I live in a fear - will my data be there tomorrow??? Or, has anyone else experienced anything similar?
When I bring up Windows Explorer it no longer shows the tree view of folders in the left pane. Actually, there's no left pane at all. And the "folders" button on the toolbar is gone.
I've got Vista Ultimate 32bit on a quad-core 4G machine.
This just recently happened so I'm assuming something got clobbered.
I have a dual boot of Vista Ultimate and XP Home on one drive.
In Vista I can "see" and access all of my folders on the Vista and XP partitions but when I boot into XP I can't "see" or access my Vista folders on the Vista partition. I have been able to do so in the past but they are missing now.
I was adding some files from my laptop to my desktop today, and after I was finished, all of my files disappeared. All the files in the folder I was adding things to, and the parent folder that held that folder, along with all the files in the parent folder. All the disk space is still taken up though, so they must still exist SOMEWHERE. I tried a system restore, and it got some of the files back, but not many of them. I'd say about 20 out of a couple hundred. I also tried this program called Disk Healer, and it said that the folders did not exist anymore.
